A Grave Insect: Two Limericks for Thursday

graveA dash on a gravestone,
expresses how you’ve grown
A sister rendered into dates,
because death wouldn’t wait.
It left only her bones.

A fuzzy object,

causes me to exclaim, “it’s perfect!”

Until I pick up my glasses…

then the truth bashes.

Is that thing an insect?
