A Journey

The caterpillar
is a slug of movement
meandering slowly
across
the sidewalk
along ravines and
depressions in
the asphalt, almost like
walking
on the moon
furry body seeking respite
a piece of shade, sun
in hot pursuit.

Thank you too, Rhiannonw. Isn't it amazing how such an abhorrent little creature can turn into the most beautiful and dainty of God's creatures? It's proof we can change too if we truly desire to. Bonne nuit, Richard LP
