In the Confines In the confines of my brain I throw the netting of my seine Pull the thoughts within my head And count the whales alive and dead Some I eat and some I fry And some I hang to simply dry They are my food and nectars blend To keep me from starvations end Then I walk in fields of green Plucking flowers from the scene Satisfied the meager fare But know tomorrow may be bare But in the overall of all My time is set the reapers call And I am also in the seine Within the circle of the chain Now isn’t that a dainty dish To be the whale to be the fish |

Morning Sy! It's hot and you got me to thinking I want to take off and go fishing... not for a whale though. ~Morning hugs & tea, Nancy~ ~ Those who complain the sun has gone out of their world |

It matters not how high up in the food chain that we be, we are still in the same seine that is to pulled out of the waters of life by that grim ole reaper. I suggest we all carry net-cutters! Tossing you a life-line of starlight, EA |

Some I eat and some I fry And some I hang to simply dry They are my food and nectars blend To keep me from starvations end ================================ I got the tartar sauce and fries. and that verse is so cool its KOOL AID. *L* dont forget to send me some more poems when ya get time. I would love to live as a river flows, carried by the surprise of its own unfolding. |
