The Great Escape

 Walking the New Ground I found a spider tunnel
bejeweled with dew.
The spider had a guest.
I watched as the grasshopper crawled toward the top
expecting the owner of the web to scramble out to catch its breakfast.
This one got away!

Deep Woods Spider Web

The sun shined off the web
and the owner ran like crazy.
Found the little lady hiding from me.
These weavers are always extremely ugly in my book.
Maybe that was their trade off for being able to weave so beautifully.
I'm glad spiders aren't as big as cattle.

Through Marcy's Lens

There are some days you just want to say
P--- on it!
Never give up.
See sunshine on the webs.
and diamonds that appear in the morning dew.
Be grateful
you're not the spider's lunch
Hide if you must but only for a short while
There's always worm poop
But if the light's right
It's a work of art
Enjoy the sunshine on the web of life...
and smile.

Spider Web

with jewels.

Today Hubby goes back to the doctor...by himself.  I have no one to work in my place so I can't go.  Oh, well, glad the post office is still open...gotta pay those doctor bills.

He is having some trouble breathing (daughters, don't panic...he is the same) and thinks he may have more blockage.  He is scared (but would never admit that) and is cranky because he doesn't know how to handle scared.  He's seen the nose and throat guy and that doc sees nothing but acid reflux, his regular doctor says his pneumonia is gone but there is still some fluid in his lungs...so he has fluid pills. Hubby thinks he has a clot, I think he doesn't do the right kind of exercise and smokes too much.  Arggg...wish they would fix him!

Think of him today...thank you.

A Gardner's Poem...


Marcy grew the okra
And so could you
But the spiderweb was something
She could never do.
Created at night
Bejeweled with dew
The Spider had the art
no gardener knew!
