fly stuck in amber

frozen by a droplet
frozen in time
a fly stuck in amber
isn't aware of the time

A streak of light
reflects off the amber,
giving off the elegant colour
beholding the frozen fly,
that is stuck in amber.

For years and years
it stays preserved,
time is endless as i
have observed.

sitting on the shelf
it does not stir,
stuck in its droplet
it will never stir.

A fossil frozen in amber. Very good piece!! thumbs up wine

I've found some mollusk fossils here on my ranch and just on Sunday morning had found a bear skull along with a rusty horsehoe thrown from a horse that was tragically lost in an accident in September '09. It's amazing the stuff the earth gives up from time to time. :)

its cool finding skulls of living things but ive never seen a bears skull

You have this whimsical offering nailed, scarwolve: It certainly is fascinating looking at insects trapped in amber, and realising that unless destroyed by fire or other catastrophe, they will remain there for ever and for all time.

Fine write

Hello Scarwolve

Beautifully frozen!

words frozen within that amber which lays a fly.
Amber a beautiful liquid stayer, which can and does hold a droplet of history.
I wear a ring my mother passed to me, the stone is amber.
For all the history it holds.

Enjoyed so much your write
