Crazy Thoughts Thursday.

Here I am again as I promised earlier.  Nice to have you here with Muffin and I today.  It is such a wonderful day.  Actually it started yesterday, well, maybe I should say it started quite a while ago, but it just boosted yesterday.  A few words said from a good friend.  Thank you, you know who you are.  Don’t underestimate the power of words.  They can be a real blessing and encouragement to someone.  Or the can tear a person down and quite literally destroy someone.  Let’s be those who are on the encouragement side when allowing those words to come from us.

I was asked so very nicely to share some of my crazy poems so I will start to do that for a while, one or two each week, for your enjoyment.  At least I hope you will enjoy since these are not normal poems.  They don’t follow any rules.  They are what they are.  Okay, now for the crazy poem, this is based on an actual event;

Monster Spiders

There it is on the floor,

Crawled right in through the door,

How can it be as big as that,

Let me get my baseball bat.

How it runs, oh, so fast,

But Muffin cornered it at last.

Can’t find my bat, how about a shoe,

I whack it hard, what does it do?

It starts to crawl away,

Makes my brain start to sway.

I jump and pound till it goes squash,

What a gooey mess I must wash.

That critter was big, 4 inch across       (that equals 10cm, just to define)

Why is it here, I’m at a loss.

But here they live, and I don’t like,

So time for me to take a hike!

      • Still very cool for this time of year, no sign of leaves yet which is amazingly late. Supposed to start warming up next week, I sure hope so, would be nice to go outside without a jacket. I imagine it’s quite nice now where you are.🙂

      • Eh. Sometimes it is. It’s been raining a lot. Cool in the morning, at times hot in the afternoon. It’s confusing, but at least now I can go for walks.

      • Yes, I have been able to get out walking more now, in the afternoon once it warms up. Last weekend it was only in the 30s at it’s warmest point of the day. Today it actually hit 48F., one of our warm days. Not much rain here though so the forest is dry.

  7. LOL! Great way to look at a disturbing subject. What kind of spider gets that large way up there? A wold Spider?

    • No, not the wolf spider, although we do have them, can’t remember the name, I have it written down somewhere. Then can get even bigger, up to 6 inches I think is the record size. And they are fast! They are a dark brown with yellowish stripes. It’s only the female that gets that big though. Thanks for reading Lee!
