Sealed with a Kiss

oh the spiders....

That mountain was there for stability and piece of mind

And that one stone, dislodged for comfort and aging, rolls

Becoming a home for wayward arachnids with hunger and families

The night brings room service and a full belly, restful evenings

 

Sing to me the song of sages

Resting in their feathered robes

Sing to me the song of wisdom

Watching fate and time unfold

 

When the rain washes clean the days troubles

Eight legs twitch with the dreams of victories in battle

The scorpions stinger did not find purchase this day

And with the rising of the fire, the battle for life resumes

 

Hum to me a tune of mothers

Working hard beneath their dress

Hum to me a tune of starlings

And fierceness in times of stress

 

Take not the breath of life for granted and do what you can

Look on all creation as a wonderland, painted with camel hair

And whisper your dreams to the wind and blush if you must

And wait for a return message from the universe, sealed with a kiss

 

Author's Note

There's that universe again...we are on a first name basis.

I do believe all life is sacred... except me.. I'm just scared
I do believe everyone and everything has a purpose.. except me, mines a yellow fin tuna
I do believe everything has its place.. and there but for the grace of the Great Architect, go I...
Another nice one Crowley.. Neville

It is that time again where the world will swallow you whole if you are not paying attention to that widowmaker kiss... its all madness and mayhem...and prayers

[Crowley]

Indeed it is...not one for spiders or scorpions, but I don't think they care for us either.

[Carolynn]

I like the change in form from speaking to singing...and bringing nature into the message of how fragile life is. Very enjoyable :)

I hate spiders but you made them sound magical even though I hate them

[Crowley]

Thanks, the only time spiders are magical is at Halloween, but even then they are creepy!!! Great to hear from you!
