Premium Member fearing the giant caterpillar
The giant caterpillar ate my shed That’s okay, the color was an awful red With a burp and a grin, the caterpillar ate my cat Quin Quin was getting old, I said, calm once again. That giant caterpillar slid under my bed. A place I no longer feel safe laying my head. I am sleeping at the neighbor’s down the road. She...

Caterpillar Wisdom
"If I were meant to soar up there with you," said the creepy caterpillar to the colourful butterfly, fluttering by overhead, "and not stay crawling earthbound here instead, I would have been born with wings, and it will be over my body when dead, akin to a murder of crows, before you'll get me up in one of those funny-looking flying things." ...

The Caterpillar and the Tree
~ Awash on the horizon midst a pristine April day, a caterpillar inched his way along Wondering what waited as he slowly made his way, whistling a happy springtime song He found a stately sycamore was standing in his path, its trunk did show the age of many years Weathered by the autumn winds and winter's frigid wrath, lightning strikes and oh so...

Premium Member The Caterpillar
I watched a caterpillar climb a tree Wondering why in the world not me, Taking it as a fortuitous sign While seeing that poor critter climb. Holding my breath with squinted eyes Thinking to myself, how very wise We humans are by strange design While seeing that poor critter climb. Minute by minute in our eternal now His...

Premium Member Where, Caterpillar, Where?
Caterpillar, where are you going? Somewhere the cold wind ain't blowing? I will surely hate to see you go. Take care, the gardener likes to mow. First, you stretch out, and then up you bunch. Watch out for the foot, lest you go scrunch. You can bend, but you will never break. You haven't a bone for heaven's sake. I want...

Hi dear friends, I’m back after a bad shingles attack and straight after that bronchitis verging on pneumonia.
