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!"

TODAY’S POTUS’ RED LARVA
Making The Nation
Great Again, he’s erupting
Our democracy:
Oppressive lava flowing
Hot power-mongering blood:-

Kill the spark
the fire dies
Mute one voice
and Poets cry
Kill the larva
kill the host
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
with supreme sweet eggplant ...
All sipped with a porto wine
of passion fruit ....
Hawaii vermicelli,
rubbing mussels
bread crumbs
crowded larva sections
inside peanut crumbs
portuguese cognac within
and pineapple with avocado

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.

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.

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.

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.

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,
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.

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.

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

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

Couplet
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.

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

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.

FREEDOM
From just a tiny egg, beauty can grow
Following its plans from the very start
With all the colours it will finally show
Next, the larva becomes the chrysalis
Then wings will emerge as abstract art
With the natural cycle knowing all this
To those earlier stages it says goodbye
As a wondrous process from the start
Its final freedom, as a proud butterfly
From just a tiny egg, beauty can grow
Wings then emerging like abstract art
Its final freedom, as a proud butterfly
