That day, when I wandered after first
autumn rain
along the fresh glowing on the sun
puddles,
Archie seemed has been busy observing
an apple stalk, thrown by someone in a
puddle.
Large spotted ladybug perched on the top
of it,
as if glued, ignoring sliding juicy
surface.
On the side below, two ants teamed up
working hard
sawed the piece to take out for
breakfast.
A
colorful butterfly fluttered above them,
looking for the spot to land.
Nobody noticed an appearance of Archie the
Worm…
He froze for while swaying into melancholy
of doubt: to come or not to come closer…
Following the ripples in the puddle, it
was easy
to guess his thoughts…
To come now
would be a blunder. Archie
cringed just imagined as if in a dream
the scene with a Ladybug slowly falling
at him, squashing his guts…
Zigzagging his ring-shaped torso
Archie framed the puddle in digress.
