Do they close their eyes And try not to peek? Do they count to ten By an old oak tree? Do they, "Rally, rally All's in free" When Insects play Do they jump a rope? Do they ride a sled Down a snowy slope? Do they ever play games Like Truth or Dare? Or run with sissors Or cut their own hair? Do they walk on stilts? Do they kick the can? Do they build little castles Made out of sand? Do they play football? Or fly a kite? Do they chase fireflies On a summer night? Do they play the same Sort of games we do? Do they go to the park Or to the zoo? In the summer, Outside in the sun I've watched the insects Have great fun. I've watched them soaring In the breeze, And build tree houses Made out of leaves. I have seen mud daubers In the day Making mud pies Out of clay. And at the pond I have watched with glee How certain beetles Can water-ski. And if you have never Ever seen A young prince ant Courting a queen, Then you have missed A wonderous sight As ants with wings Take off in flight. I would love to have Some insect friends. I would like to join Their insect games. And I could teach Them games I play If I could be As small as they.
