Helicopters

Helicopters dot the sky
Like dragonflies, but louder.
I wonder if the insect world
Sees them and feels much prouder.

For how their rumbles fill the air,
Attracting much attention,
Although their engineers would claim
That wasn’t their intention.

Still, I prefer the gentle buzz
Of wings to their propellers.
(Except for stinging insects –
I’ve no fondness for those fellers!)
