What you lookin' at?
I'm totally sold on these wee suckers.
They are so 'alien' looking.
Their little feet tickle as they crawl across my hand.
Their eyes, watchful and still.
A flick and they are gone.
Jumping, as light as air
To a safer place.
Shh little one.
I won't harm you
You're safe here with me
Away from the crush of big red feet
And trembling, inquisitive noses
I will hide you
Under this leaf
I will watch 'til you have
Safely retreated to your happy place.
Where no harm can come to you.
Garlic bread and salad for tea. Then bedtime for me and the red one.
Night.
