Walking Leaf (or Leaf Insect)

Also from the family Phyliidae, the walking leaf, or leaf insect, is native to South Asia and Australia. Its amazing natural camouflage makes it virtually invisible in wooded areas, which not only protects them from predators but also lets their prey come to them.

Similarly to mantises and stick bugs, the leaf insect has a tendency to sway back and forth to mimic a real leaf blowing in the wind. Some sources state that these insects may have been in existence 47 million years ago.


    Imagine

    I woke up to one of those days

    When things seem blissfully content

    Where there is many reasons for one to re-invent

    I went to the window and noticed the rain

    Usually when I see rain it causes me pain

    I am not one for rain, and never have been

    But today when I looked out, that’s when it all began

    I found myself imagining how the insect world must be

    What being them and seeing as they see

    So my imaginations took  on a rather peculiar twist where

    I wanted to know what it was like to imagine it there.

    I  imagined that this rain was pounding down on them

    It was like their world was being bombed

    Or maybe they were filling their pools or replenishing their spas.

    Was this a tragic day for them?

    Did the rain kill some of their friends?

    In the insect world this rain must be harsh,

    Unless they like living in a marsh.

    Maybe I was over thinking things

    Possibly this rain could be replenishing

    Perhaps they have gardens too

    Like we do

    Maybe in their world there are crops galore

    I imagine a lake maybe they float on it riding on leaves

    Maybe they even like when the rain is pouring down

    Is it possible this all could take place on the earth’s ground?

    I would say as a human I don’t know all their needs

    Nor do I know their wants

    But that is what imagination is for

    I think tomorrow I will imagine some more.
