\nOn the back country roads and noted the
\nGreat majority of meandering,
\nMigrating wooly caterpillars
\nResembled miniature Marilyn
\nMonroes made, by forces of nature
\nBeyond their ken, bright blonde and slow to move
\nTo avoid objects and events that
\nSurely will destroy them.
\nNevertheless the Lepidoptera
\nPortend a meek and mild winter this year.<\/p>\n
