Grasshoppers go in many a thumming spring <br />And now to stalks of tasseled sow-grass cling, <br />That shakes and swees awhile, but still keeps straight; <br />While arching oxeye doubles with his weight. <br />Next on the cat-tail-grass with farther bound <br />He springs, that bends until they touch the ground.<br /><br />John Clare<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/grasshoppers/
