Pondering

Heather sits in the light of the full moon
Letting the must caress her skin
Wondering what life has in store for her

Quietly as she mulls over the choices destiny had given her
A small yet rambunctious caterpillar inches towards her
With questions in its eyes

Oh Heather of the must why do you ponder so hard?
Why not let the sisters of fate have their way?
Sir back and enjoy the ride

Heather replies, I wish I could but you see
My cat Mary has lost her marbles
And I feel they have found their way into me

At this the caterpillar and Heather turn back
Towards the water
Let the must roll over them and ponder some more
