Crawling Up Your Arm What do you feel in the middle of the night? What wakes you up with horror and fright? What is that thing crawling in your bed? Moving so slowly from toes to head Will it bite? Will it sting? What deadly poison will it bring? Slowly crawling up your arm Do you cry out Raise the alarm? Or do you dare let out a scream And hope that this is only a dream? |

This is creepy..I know that feeling...waking up in a panic that something is on you, and not knowing if it was a dream or not. For me, its usually spiders that I dream about (SHUDDERS...or at least I hope I only dream about them)crawling on me. A terrible fear.... Nice work here, Devine. My name isn't Baby, and I don't want to cyber. |

Egad how I hate those crawly things....this one has left me with goosebumps! Just a word of caution...do not scream....it is written somewhere that every human will swallow at least 6 spiders in their lifetime, just because they sleep with their mouths open....I haven't had a good nights sleep since I heard that! Just thought I share that little piece of trivia.... Bonnie |

I, for one, hope that it is only a dream! Very cute! Abra "So often times it happens that we live our lives in chains And we never even know we have the key." -Already Gone, The Eagles |

Hmm...if that were me, I'd probably shriek and try to shake it off. Then I'd have a heck of a time trying to fall back asleep. Elizabeth Something sweet, something sort of grandish, sweeps my soul when thou art near... [email protected] |
