I can’t believe
You lied to me again today
You said you loved me
You even called me beautiful

You placed a silver charm
And cast a spell on me

I turned your name
Into a jewel
A purple amethyst

You just found another game
For me to play-

Over and Over again
I call your name
And now I hear it rhyme with
Everything I say!

Petrified on gossamer strings, attached to
Brittle dry seed heads on stiff stalks
Where waits…..
A perfectly placed spider in his web
You will need to squeeze and poke about, if you want to see…..!

I want a memory like a fish please!

??Today, an awful lot of time was spent in the casualty department of the local hospital. It took from 10 this morning till 5 this afternoon before the journey home. All is absolutely OK now, thanks to the wonderful nursing staff and doctors so there really is no need to go on about the details of what happened. Everything is just fine!

But the day has been so long! And there has been an awful lot of sitting around in the waiting room, by a fish tank where some lazy fish  continued to swim around and around and around. I thought at one point, with so much time on my hands, I might be able to think of something funny to say later on this blog, about fishes who do nothing but swim around in circles and having short memories. But I can’t think of a single thing….….
