The Green Witch and the Baby

.
.
.

Sitting down, beside the fire,
She saw the storm clouds, grow,
So, picked up between her fingers,
A thread of frost, and snow.

One thread of rain, and hale,
A thread of thunders boom,
And to finish off, her creation,
A thread of lightenings glow.

Together, she weaved the storm,
Into a small, and patchy blanket.
A thread of arctic winds, she used,
To tightly fix the edges.

Then, she wrapped it round her baby,
and standing back, admired,
Her creation, of a stormy night,
Which, she alone, conspired.

I have never had the desire to have children. I think of the documentary Penguins where the father has to balance the egg on his feet for months while the mother goes out and gets food. I have about 90 baby snails in my aquarium right now. Some people really do love their children, then others prefer to let them freeze in the ice.crazy santa waving

Haha.. thanks for commenting... you made me laugh.. and think, that, perhaps, if I was born a snail, the old slug probably would have made me a blanket of sunshine, soft clouds and rainbows, instead...
take care. :)
