In Need of a Lie Down



I planted myself at the beach this afternoon where I realized such activity was foolishly long overdue. These lines came to me...


I'm weary of weaving webs,
Of energizer bunnies
And salad spinners.
I want to lie me down,
Be covered with lettuce,
A rabbit foot in my pocket
And listen to the song a spider sings.

 And now? It's teatime.

  1. Since I’m still trying to converse with bees…why not spiders…

    I can imagine their swaying sounds as they echo through their web strings…

    Like soft sounds hitting upon their woven waving weft…

    In deed a Need of a Lie Down…

  2. I find the simplest activities can bring the greatest joy and the most amazing verses. Great job
