Ancestry
A chigger avoiding a scratch
Did not wait for larva to hatch
It found a new host
And quickly could boast,
"Our gedcoms are a perfect match!"...

Mute one voice

Kill the larva

Burn your bridges

She was a disillusionist
Sarcastic and quite nasty.
I hired a doodlebug to capture her
I paid him rather well.
She came out a nicer worker ant.
Having survived that larva hell....

Caper with asparagus porridge,
accompanies fake ravioli

All sipped with a porto wine
of passion fruit ....

crowded larva sections
inside peanut crumbs
portuguese cognac within
and pineapple with avocado

Rewind Pt2
Things doesn’t go the way we want,
They go the way we do for it.
Results I got harsh, which I can’t,
Future happens according to one’s did.

Was a larva tried hard and hard to rest,
But am a butterfly which could not fly.
Understood the assignment after just,
The results came out, can’t time just rewind.

The luring into
the larva pose,
like raking leaves
and scrubbing scum off tapestries,
we work for the shine.
Let your better half fold itself
and roll over onto the turgid glaze.
Breathe fully, quietly in these days
and patient your perseverance.
The season remains the stronghold
to all God-willing fates....

Still Alive
The world revolves,
Around the sun.
On and on,
Same days, same years...
But once in a while,
An asteroid hits,
An eclipse darkens,
But it is still there.
It bleeds larva, screams in terror and pain.
Shadowed for years...
But still there
Like a little sapling looking for light, 
Trying to come back alive....

Death as a lunar moth
A lunar moth sublime will fly to light    
Green larva changes to a lovely moth  ,
 Its  cycle of life  like death  will bring insight .
Death like a moth you flit about for naught ? 
And your  karma is like  your next life’s cloth 
If you fly to close to the light you  get burned,
And you will  reincarnate lesson earned....

Dragonfly
He
Sits
Waiting
Patiently
On the white heather
With green and gold enamelled head.

A
Late
Summer
Visitor
Lazing in the sun :
A dragonfly with lace-like wings.

Like
A
Fossil,
Motionless,
From prehistory,
An insect frozen in amber.

As
A
Larva
He’s waited
Five years water-bound,
Finally free, he flies away....

Premium Member Caterpillar To Butterfly
caterpillar

                 green, young

 crawling, metamorphosing, molting

larva, silkworm, vertebrae, gossamer

       flittering, flapping, perching

             winged, iridescent

                    butterfly

the prime sigh of the waning twilight beetle larva gazes at the bright delight waves of a sleek quaver in a fit sight She soars towards the azure sky morphs into the golden syllables singing of a tawny moon rouse the tangled yearnings of the soul whispered hue of a jubilee soothing song

Before You Came
Before you came,
a sky full of fears,
O, larva-hot tears,
hearts, won't claim.

Before you came,
my life, fell apart,
Love, the lost part,
skull full of blame.

Before you came,
a butterfly, no rose,
played with my toes,
nights, did the same.

But then you came,
scented, lovely rose,
and the butterfly rose,
Lizzie was your name....

Premium Member Monarch Butterfly
A monarch butterfly in flight looks so beautiful Unfortunately, there lives are ephemeral. For a short time, they are grounded as a larva. The caterpillar transforms inside its pupa. Bursting from the cocoon, they spread their wings. Few thing found in nature are like these things. Robert Pettit 4-4-12 For Gail's "Butterfly's Trail of Kisses" contest

Can you hear the sound of gossamer wings stroking the air? A brightly colorful papillon makes its way without much care. Few things found in nature are as beautiful as this. Just a short time ago, it emerged from its chrysalis. The grounded larva has undergone a metamorphosis. In this sultry summer season is where you belong. No wonder you inspired Bob Lind to write a song.

And when the end comes
it comes very fast indeed 
Not always in slow motion 
but at breakneck speed 
Said the Woodpecker to the 
larva, I kill Swiftly to feed! 
But you’re just a Cuckoo
see how, your head bleeds
No wait! it’s a Hawk talon 
TWIST SNAP! When Crowing 
one should pay more heed

Premium Member Sadness
Pain comes again
Sadness now stains


Heart feels so sad
Broken bleeds bad


Feel shattered will
Pieces fall ill


Sad piercing pain
Stabs once again


If only sighs
Could ease my cry


Sad and sad merge
In conscious scourge


Broken heart knows
How larva flows


A piercing pain
Slash and cut stains


No escape here
As madness steers

Metamorphosis
Commenced
as a tiny
egg glued to foliage.
Maturing  bondage in a shell
awaits

Larva.
Eating, growing,
full size caterpillar
outgrows its present confines.
Splitting

 Again.
Reattaching
itself with liquid from
its spinneret . Creating a
button.

hanging
little pupa
dieting, motionless,
metamorphosing completely
anew
 
Cracking,
exposing  head
and thorax first. Followed
by legs and golden wings of a
Monarch....

Devils Eyes
Can you remember the first kiss
That stole your heart with a twist 
Can you remember our hopes and dreams
I never dreamed it would end like this

The devils heart is unspoken words
How her evil has in golfed my world
Hacking away replacing love with fear
Taking away our first kiss replaced by tears  

Fiery pits, flames on high 
Red as rubies, like the devils eyes
Rocks and larva ,symbols of life
Bow down never, ill not die...

Premium Member want to taste a meely worm
Larva of meal worms are tasty Corn Cob Cobble said.
A meely worm collector who is always well-fed.
I love them he told me, want to give one a try?
They were squirming and ugly, I gave them the eye.

I had one before, I lied through my mouth and my nose.
These worms gave me the creeps from my head down to my toes.
Suit yourself Corn Cob Cobbie said, popping two in his mouth.
I watch his esophagus twitch and wiggle as they both headed south....
