I know he's still around, but I think he's living in the tangle of weeds I've let grown around a weeping willow tree.<br /><br />@Sue - hahaha...thanks, Sue! That's the only thing that popped to mind when I saw that photo.<br /><br />@Rick - hahaha...I bet you do! I've seen his face in lots of humans. Thanks, Rick!<br /><br />@Sandy - Thanks, Sandy. I loved the poem as well...it so captures a cockroach typing out his impressions of a toad!!
