The sun shines brightly through my bedroom window Nature reminder to rise and take my head off the pillow The kitchen calls out a hearty breakfast I must make It will give me energy for a hike around the lake A gentle autumn breeze greets me as I begin my journey The brightly colored leaves drift slowly to the...

Snow mice check out the caged bird so black We never told them but they heard the venter’s hack Came out of the top hat like curriers in a big hurry. The eyes of the recipient watched those rodents scurry!...

Tis a tale of Kid Scurry. That hailed from Missouri. Claimed He's the fastest around. They hired a known shootist. Who came out of St Louis. Then their six guns blazed. Though it was an even play. Kid Scurry lies draped in a shroud. Well, He wasn't the fastest. Yet, needed more practice. They buried him with his boots on. As the crimson sun went...

Premium Member Shadows Scurry
Darkness descends as shadows scurry, and a dying, scarlet sun silently sets. Ruby-red and crimson-colored clouds coalesce into a sullied shroud. As dusk darkens, daylight dims. And while sullen silhouettes slip-slide, black bats blacken the air; in full flight....

Scurry Now a Panther Comes Your Way
Hush hush busy muskrat; all you bucktoothed beavers gnaw on unheard, work you unseen. The sleek panther is stalking slipping silently through the feathergrass an angel of hunger is in its eyes. You timid rabbit and fawn, be gone! That creeping killer can stalk the wind it smells your breath, the faint odor of death is already upon it. Quick you nibblers, you green grazers Your time...

Premium Member Worry Scurry Scurry Worry
I used to take work home with me. Worry. Scurry. Scurry. Worry. Taking no time to speak to my family. Paying them no attention at all. All of this worrying and scurrying depressed me. Sad and mad, I would take to my bed. One nap would not suffice, so I would take two. Leave me alone! I would yell to my children. My...

Scurry
Icy cold fingers invade There's no stopping it No chance of a forcefield no brigade Assaulted. FIRE! hit! FIRE! hit! No way to breathe They fire and never miss Just some air is what I need Torturous Shaded eyes Ears distracted No more lies The truth extracted Head seems clouded Heart in a bind Yet I am who allowed it The mistakes are mine Beaten down by my...

Premium Member When They Scurry
Night after night I still dream about these blocks. Dance they do, dance they don't. Seeing them hand-less in effortless glide, my mind strides so young to differ! squared, cube, these blocks move sporadic movement in dance no rhyme, reasoning Again the nights throw these scratching sounds from below my bed, dread I. In confusion scrawl, they bawl silently to me,...
