lightnin' bugs

I got really wet grass because my Dad just mowed it.  I put it in the pimento cheese container with the lightning bug I caught.  I caught it on a brick.  It's wing was broken, it couldn't fly.  I named him Fabrick because I found him on a brick.  I let him ride on my bike and I was talking to him but he couldn't hear me probably.

I don't think Fabrick had attenna, or maybe I just didn't see them.  Fabrick is also called a firefly.  I was right.  I just looked on wikipedia and www.firefly.org and I found out really short grass can kill fireflies.  And my Dad mows his grass really short. Adult fireflies only live two weeks so maybe Fabrick was close to being two weeks old.   The End.
