A vast and hungry swarm
It flies and hops, devours crops
An unforgiving storm

It leaps in heaps through greenest fields
and leaves no leaf behind
Turns farm to plain as quick as flame
with no green left to find

The wind will send this awful plague
at random so it seems
And where it stops, it takes the crops
and all else that it sees

A giant swarm, a locust storm
to ravage all it sees [comments] => 2 [counter] => 86 [topic] => 27 [informant] => nightwolf [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => NaturePoetry ) Your Poetry Dot Com - The Locusts

A giant cloud to shroud the sun
A vast and hungry swarm
It flies and hops, devours crops
An unforgiving storm

It leaps in heaps through greenest fields
and leaves no leaf behind
Turns farm to plain as quick as flame
with no green left to find

The wind will send this awful plague
at random so it seems
And where it stops, it takes the crops
and all else that it sees

A giant swarm, a locust storm
to ravage all it sees
