Daddy Long Legs



Companion in the silence when I write
who makes no demands,
harmless little Martian
stalking delicate and elegant in the window-sill’s dust,
thank you for your company.

    Glad to know I'm not the only one who sees them in this way. bugs can be so beautiful and refreshingly clueless.

    I am unsure what to make of this. Should I take it seriously? I fear not, perhaps you have mistaken a blowfly for a Martian. I understand your native land is blessed with many interesting and fierce insects.

    Very good

    Love the way you create a mood with just a few lines. I hope the harmless little Martians inspire you more and lead to more such lines!

    i love this write, and am delighted that you refer to your visiting insect as a martian, they do resemble alien beings, indeed.

    science fiction on your mind these days i see.

    very nice little write here.
