Very well penned!!

When I saw the title it reminded me of a rhyme I remember from grade one called "Grasshopperty Green"

This is such a clever write, Sue. All of that deep stuff really can seem like a pile of ca ca. And most of the time, in my opinion, it is. Great poem.

I think you grasp a lot more then you let on Sue and if anything instead of a grasshopper or a fly I think you'd be more like a butterfly beautiful but elusive,

Take care,

But I never knew what the hell
The old bald guy was telling grasshopper

Many times I didn't either - but for some reason it truly captivated me.

used to watch kung fu religiously and thought david carradine was excellent, though i think bruce lee would have been made for the part. You are a finger pointing to the moon, sue. Good fond remembrance poem. kenny

Hi Sue
Hmmm. You've had some excellent review reflections on this.
The Masters always reflect the Grasshopper back to himself.
Whether one is the fly on the wall or the Grasshopper is relative.
Each is the center of his own universe, as we can each only have one perspective and that is our own. When one finds their own center of perspective to be sufficient without measuring up to anyone elses view, this is the beginning of self-acceptance and peace in my experience. Very thought provoking.

I loved that show too and often use the term grasshopper to wee ones. My dog Trooper loved to play with the grasshoppers he was fascinated by them.

The grasshopper hops around the world;
it would take him trillion of years to
brush the world to dust even if he owns it.

The fly flies in the sky;
learns from the people and the grasshopper,
found knowledge and owns the universe.

Very good. The first President of the "free" Czechoslovakia once said "Seek those who search for the truth, and run from those who found it." So, grasshopper, keep searching... it will come... when you least expect it...
