Luna Moth



While performing my ongoing task this Summer of cutting trees and bushes, I came across this hungry guy.  A beautiful green Luna Moth Caterpillar who's belly is full and ready to start his/her cocoon which will only be a three week transformation into a gorgeous Moth.  With a wingspan that can reach nearly five inches (12.7 cm) ithis Moth needs large wings to make a quick getaway from predators.  The Luna Moth is a favorite treat for a Bat who's feeling peckish.  The Luna Moth will swirl its long tail on the wings to distract and confuse the hungry Bat and flee before getting caught.

We left this guy in the forest in hopes to see once again this beautiful Caterpillar turn into a majestic Luna Moth.  Stay tuned!

Water



If you think this World today is filled with Unpleasantries, Disrespect, Hatred and Rage.  Think again...  For if the World ended today and there was no Government, no law enforcing.  The one thing that you do take for granted now, may be the one thing that you will kill for.

Faded Happiness



She closes her eyes in disgust
As her happiness has now faded
To the point that it upsets her
Even just to talk about it

Today the House Has Gone Away



As I was driving down the Thoroughfare
I saw a house that wasn't There
That house wasn't there again Today
Oh how I wish that house would Stay

Have you ever taken a drive and pass something saying:  "I have to return here one day and stop by?"  We've all done it countless times.  Here is a house that apparently is abandoned and for the life of me I cannot find it.  I know where it was and it wasn't so long ago when I passed it taking this Drive-by-Shooting. But today the house has gone away.  Not to the point of being ripped down, but simply I cannot seem to locate it!

Again I will return another Day
To see if the house is going to Stay
I hope that house will soon be There
The next time I drive down that Thoroughfare

Stories Never Told Before



One, Two, Three, Four
Stories never told Before
Five, Six, Seven, Eight
All your Crosses lined up Straight
Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve
The past burdens all being Shelved

Thirteen, Fourteen, Fifteen, Sixteen
Skeleton's closet not so Clean
Seventeen, Eighteen, Nineteen, Twenty
Sins regretted oh so Plenty
Twenty One, Twenty Two, Twenty Three, Twenty Four
Again that story you heard Before

One, Two, Three, Four
Not again it's a total Bore

Straight Out of Camera



Sometimes a photograph shot without realizing it turns out to be one of the best.  If there is one tip I can give anyone when shooting digital is to never edit and delete photos taken until you have viewed them all after downloading.  Still I would rid the photographs for they just might come in handy one day.

This photograph was taken during an exploration as I pressed the shutter inadvertently.  I was walking just coming atop of a staircase when the shutter snapped.  Seen here is the result without filters or other enhancements.  SOOC as some may refer to it or simply Straight out of the camera.

Christmas In July




Trim up the tree with Christmas Stuff
Like Bingle Balls and Whofoo Fluff
Trim up the town with Goowho Gums and Biziblix and Wums
Christmas comes...  Wait, July?!

What ever happened to:
Christmas comes but once a Year?

Shown is a truck ready to be Unloaded
Christmas is not a biannually Holiday
Since when was Jesus Christ born in July?

Just Saying!

Gated Community



The day when I retire from Life
I think I'll live in a gated Community
With nice peaceful Neighbors
And no Politics

Opinions will be forever Forgotten
With no one ever being Offended
Our feelings will never be Hurt
The Hearts in our Souls will always be filled with Love

Shine A Little Light



Keep ringing the Bells that still can Ring
And forget your perfect Offering
For there is a Crack in Everything
This is how the Light Shines In

"Like" & "Share"



You know what really irks the Sh_t out of me about Facebook?!  "LIKE" & "SHARE" 

"LIKE if you remember it." "SHARE, if you owned it."  "LIKE if you have a Grandchild." "SHARE if it's the best Grandchild in the World!"  "If you agree with the cause, LIKE."  If you support the cause, SHARE."  "Do you agree?  "LIKE & SHARE if you do."  Whatever the case might be, I'm instructed to LIKE & SHARE.

Well here's what I'm going to SHARE with you...  Why should I be instructed to "LIKE" something and then go ahead and SHARE it?!  Who really benefits from this and what in God's name will happen if I don't LIKE & SHARE?  Will you be offended and unfriend me?  Will the World end?  OMG, I shudder to think of all the unfortunate things that might happen to me if I didn't "LIKE" & "SHARE" at everyone's command.

The "LIKE" option is there for you to press at your own free will. Not because someone tells you to "LIKE" something.  If I like or agree to what you post, I'll "LIKE" it and probably never SHARE it.  Pretty much Cut and Dried!

If I'm command to "LIKE" something, and then "SHARE" it  I'll most "LIKELY" NOT "LIKE" & "SHARE."  All because of a stupid ass thumbs up symbol to go along with 250,000,000 other Facebook Members who were told to LIKE & SHARE… 

"LIKE" that?!  Maybe NOT!

Mausoleum Funday



Everyone seems to have a hashtag for everything including the days of the week. #MondayMotivation #ManCrushMonday #TacoTuesday #TransformationTuesday #WayBackWednesday #WomanCrushWednesday #ThrowBackThursday #ThirstyThursday #FlashBackFriday #FreakyFriday #SelfieSaturday #SleepLateSaturday #SundayFunday #SleepInSunday and the list goes on...

I've seen the hashtag #MausoleumMonday #TombstoneTuesday and so on for your Taphophilliacs out there.  I've come to mind to create my own for Monday when posting a photograph of a Mausoleum, because it's so much fun to post a Mausoleum photograph on a Monday.

#MausoleumFunday

How the two integrate so well together!  What do you think of that?!

Keep Your Cool



Raging tempers start to Flair
Take a seat right over There
Keeping cool, don't break a Chair
Don't give anyone a Scare

Have to send you in Timeout
Just because you were a Lout
Sit there quiet, do not Shout
Don't make a sound, do not Pout

No one thought that this was Fun
Making everybody Run
Me, them and Everyone
You will pay what you have Done

So take a seat over There
Right in that colorful Chair
Look to the sky with a Stare
Bow your head and say a Prayer
