Hector
I had never seen your face Except within a picture made Until you paid my life a visit That brightened up my days You found my patio to be your home I found you always somewhere around For days we studied each other's faces A friendship of sorts I felt we'd found Of course my husband laughed at me But how many insects can seem to find a way to pray I can use a lot of prayers you see So from me you found Hector to be your name I had decided today would be the day I would bring you to a writing home I had already picked a happy tune And you were to be placed in a challenge Titled 'Tickle My Funny Bone' I ran to find my camera your exact image to be seen You were sitting just beside me looking directly up at me I noticed a little lizzard on the wall but he was far away But when I returned with my camera he was carrying you away So now there was to be no challenge entry for that day Just a few simple lines now written From someone who may have been half crazed For who but myself could spend the day being haunted By the vision of you being from me carried away After all you were just an insect ... Isn't that what the books all say It was like you knew my voice It was like you knew my face You were almost like a small ET Who was lost from outer space So I leave but just a likeness of you upon my screen Your silly little face that for some reason made me smile I'd grab my coffee or my tea and we'd talk for a little while Silly I know to feel a little alone When the chair on my patio is now seen October 17, 2013 I ran across your face today. Dusted you off and brought you to a different writing home The memory of you appearing each day on my wall Still brings a smile You know what my friends? It really ISN'T EASY being green I know .... I know ... LOL First written September 21, 2011 Audio It Isn't Easy Being Green allowscriptaccess='always' allowfullscreen='true' frameborder='0'> Original by Lesa Gay Aka Aspiring Angel |
