Well I'd be scurrying if someone was going to have me for lunch. No worries, just hurrys. LOL. I enjoyed this little light-heared poem. Great job.

To adewpearl,
A poem describing the inescapable pace that we as humans go at for fear we are going to lose out on the big catch.
Great way of getting the message across.
May you have a very blessed and "Happy Easter."
Charlene

Lovely! I found myself smiling as I read the poem. Liked the 's' usage for the action :) Great rhyme scheme, too, not at all forced!

Well done!

    Hey,

    I'm feeling better. That hospital stay threw me in a lot of ways & is taking a while to get back to myself.

    Hope you have a GREAT Easter!

What an enjoyable poem, Brooke. I loved all your s-action verbs and it gave the poem a light and jumpy kind of feel that made me smile.

Wisdom displayed as humor. This is so true. I learned long ago that I don't own things, things own me. Yet I continue to collect things. Your art and color scheme work with your words to make this a delight to read.

What a fun poem! Love the imagery of the movement--scuttle, scramble, etc. Really gives a good feel for the rushing we do during our days.

Thanks for a great read!
