Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 952 (An Addition To That Field Of Wildflowers)

Looking into the field, we could see-

That it was filled with wildflowers, and so pretty.

.

It was springtime, and we were on route-

Hunting for more fields, without a doubt.

.

For at this time, of the year, Mother Nature is kind-

And, much more beauty is what we would find.

.

Families stopped along the roadside, and putting their

children, in mid center-

Adding beauty, to beauty, causing a wondrous stir.

.

Bees Do Sting (2014)

It’s been a while since I’ve been stung by a bee. Lucky, for me, I’m not allergic to the stinging insects.

During my lifetime, I’ve been stung several times, but the most memorable time had to do with a large black and yellow bumblebee.

I had been working outside, in the yard, and went inside for a while to cool off. As I sat down, and pressed against the chair back, I felt a sudden stinging, all over my back. Now had I know it was a bumble bee, it wouldn’t have been quite as bad.

Yes, it was very painful, but for a few seconds, I did not know where the pain was coming from. After figuring out that it was an insect attacking me, or vice-versus, I was relieved.

The unknown had taken over for a moment, and the thought of the pain had taken a backseat.

It took a small baby bee to bring it back, just the other day. I was reaching for something, and there it was. The sting was worse than I had ever remembered. One little sting, and the pain was front center. As a matter of fact, the soreness was still there as I was typing this story.

I know that bees are important to the earth. I just hope that it will be a long time, before we personally meet once again. That last sting will stay with me for a while. No reminders required.

“To bravely endure-

Brief encounters with defensive nature.”

 

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 639 (Fires Out of Control)

They had to start all over again-

Thanks to the big fire and wind.

.

It started in the forest and then it spread-

No one could have know what was up ahead.

.

The brave firefighters and the volunteers worked

so hard-

Trying to put out that fire, trying to stay on guard.

.

For weeks the fire raged, and did not stall-

Taking down complete homes and the trees

that were so tall.

.

Mother Nature had dealt a bad hand-

Striking much and many all throughout

the land.

.

And, then came the day when it was finally

put out-

With tired working souls, and many homeless

without a doubt.

.

They had to start all over again-

Thanks to the big fire and wind.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 762 (To Simply Walk And Talk)

The man and woman took a walk-

To see nature, simply to talk.

.

They went into the woods, filled with trees-

In the shade, there was a breeze.

.

They passed a squirrel, that had an

acorn in hand-

Quite a quick little fellow, colored brown

and tan.

.

They suddenly came upon a creek that

had run dry-

Guess that old stuff called drought, is the

reason why.

.

A big green turtle, stuck his head out-

And, when he spotted the visitors, his

head reversed in route.

.

All over the forest, there were many kinds

of vine-

On the forest floor, and up in trees, to

seek and find.

.

As the man and woman continued to talk-

They didn’t realize the distance, until they

headed back on their walk.

.

Miles and miles they had traveled at best-

Having a simple talk and enjoying the forest.

.

The man and woman took a walk-

To see nature, to simply talk.

Modern Mama Goose-On The Loose # 473 (Sitting Outside)

The weather began to warm
up a bit-
Which led me, to the backyard,
to sit.
.
I noticed things like I’d never
noticed before-
For me, a nature surprise was
in store.
.
There were birds, that had
gone unseen-
There were things sprouting
from the ground, that were
green.
.
There were funny bugs, all
around-
On the trees, and on the ground.
.
There were limbs down, that had
fallen from the winter-
To pick them up, I was glad to stir.
.
The sky was just as blue, as it
could be-
I was grateful for the nature, that
God had created for me.
.
The weather began to warm
up a bit-
Which led me, to the backyard,
to sit.
