Baby
Micro-born is a word befitting my birth.
“Is it dead, a stillborn?” “No wait it can breathe!”
“Put it inside a plastic envelope.”
Where I have thrived; never venturing a step
outside.

Me, insignificant
Think me as a grasshopper
Insignificant
Yet the chain may break up
if I disappear.
Time may change,
your fate too.

pond
It is my sea.
I cry and spread my hands.
A little ripple plays with sun
in the pond I belong.

They brighten my day!
Thanks for posting to my group, Anythingwriting
Happy Birthday
Blessings and best wishes - S.
Thank you for posting this to The Surreal Circus.
Hey I read something about the chain today. Don't have the book with me now but I'll paraphrase. Both good and evil make up the chain of the universe and they're interconnected. To rid the universe of one of them (evil) would be to rid the universe of itself. I thought it was some powerful stuff. It was written by a Swede, name now escapes me.
Happy Birthday from Points Nation!
Since I’m in the middle of Finals week, I hate to admit, but I must give in to the temptation of leaving a generic comment
But to give it a little personal touch, I added some artwork for you to enjoy!

Poddar ~ This one needs a Snippets Edit. With "32" words, it does not meet our Gather Group Description. Hard to do, because this Snippet is so GOOD ~ I have you a TEN. I'll help you to cut this one down to "30" words . . .
