~Thank you both Alan Johnson and Tulika Dugar. Much love to you both

 

 

 

“Awe,” the radiance; so bright.

Then, follow it, with all might.

The road course shall lead by day.

Rocks, turns, stickers and curves Climb anyway…

~~~

My prejudiced thoughts; lofty visions of you.

Fiery images deflect a golden hue.

Imagined you, bronzed, dazzling, and vein.

We danced; then came rain.

~~~

Caught too long there; my Idol thoughts; so dear.

Washed away; with my tear.

My arms bound, and mouth sealed.

Woven, hey! What’s the deal?

~~~

OH, My God! I’ve Been Caught!

The coven’s web intendedly taut!

The feast I am; His delight.

Oh, fairy friend! By the firelight! Here I am!

~~~

Now the spiders home virtually unseen

vaguely tucks into that corner beam.

But, see the dim light, growing so bright?

A fairy then severs the silk, so tight.

And, falling from the web of fright.

~~~

Still arms tangled by silk threads

Pushing out; bracing the fall

The spider and the fairy brawl

wham, bam, to and fro,

from the deathly fight, they bow

Looking, whom’s, my fairy friend?

Noticing it must be Joe.

~~~~

Underneath the spider Joe waves thumbs up, You’re alright!

Now run like hell! To the light!

Run away little bait! For, the fate of the firefly might be too late…
