(big hugggssssssss) Oh Sharon, though I don't like flies in the house because they can spread diseases, I too feel sorry for those flies that get stuck in flytrap mouthes as even when it is nature, nothing should have to feel trapped that long! (sad sigh) This is a powerful metaphoric thought from the heart, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sharon, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |

How on earth can you NOT feel like a bug after posting two poems on webs and traps? LOL... what's up with you, girl? Is it too cold to go tromping around outside? |

You are all too funny! Saw this plant at the Aquarium last weekend, took the picture, and figured I would use it to express a feeling one day, well this was the day! Glad it is making you think whatever it is your are thinking LOL, and thanks for enjoying life, on this, that, and the other thing today. |

I have my own thoughts on this'n. But you prolly knew that. Since you did so well with this one, might I challenge you to another botanical verse? Commonly known as the "spitting cucumber plant": "Growing in our fields in Israel is an amazing plant called a squirting cucumber not really a cucumber, but an oblong berry 2 or 3 cm long. Touch one of the fruits when it is ripe, and it literally explodes and spits its seeds on a stream of liquid for several meters, sometimes right into your face, with a good deal of force. (http://www.jpost.com/com/Archive/29.Dec.1996/Columns/Article-13.html) grin? I think I have a picture of such a species somewhere... and nope. Not kidding. Such a thing exists. Hope you are staying warm you! |
