So Long As You Don't Crawl In My Ear
This is the song you wanted to hear about Speckle except that I can't call her my "pet" she is her own. She was released outdoors in April. You can sleep in my bedroom so long as you don't crawl in my ear One chilly morning in November, something flew by my dining room light. A lone little ladybug had come in overnight now I had ladybug visitors before, and their days were not long but I vowed to try to keep this ladybug safe and warm and well. I researched the net for more ladybug lore updated everyone on MySpace that I had a new friend. You can sleep in my bedroom tonight so long as you don't crawl in my ear This little ladybug was so small, some days I couldn't even find her. She would usually reappear flying around a light I named her Speckle I remember the time I came home from the grocery store and putting the juice in the fridge, I looked down and there was Speckle walking across the floor. Lucky I didn't step on her. I picked her up and put her on a pear. You can sleep in my bedroom so long as you don't crawl in my ear. Thank you Speckle for allowing me to share your photo with my friends and family Don't feed your pet ladybug bananas, serve red pears and roast beef. Chocolate brownies baked with walnut oil. And spring water and steam distilled water and maple syrup. You can sleep in my bedroom tonight so long as you don't crawl in my ear. |
Red Speckle Go! ( mostly instrumental)
Warning my friend you must go! Are you even awake? Awake Awaken Awoke I am sorry I had to wake my sleeping friend There really is smoke today How do I explain this to you? I see red but not beautiful red like your wings I see flames How do I explain this to you? The smoke is in your eyes. It burns; It stings I know how that feels; I have felt it too Just fly away, no time to crawl If I could I would promise you never another forest fire But I cannot. Only you God can do that. But would he? How can I explain to you that fire is sometimes necessary? But for today, fly away, no time to crawl I know you will see suffering and it may not stop tomorrow but please just go as I ask and I will see you again fly away no time to crawl Fly away no time to crawl You know I want to see you again. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - The Best December Ever Weather your winter is warm or cold there will be a holiday song I hope it's not too long While flying through the aisles of the grocery store for me it's not just a weekly chore I like the pears, roast beef, and brownies today there's some out-of-townies there is even food for a dog but what is this stuff called eggnog? I've tasted the fancy fruitcakes reindeer shaped chocolates in foil end the end of an aisle! I must make a quick stop, for a cardboard stand of old bearded man shaped lollipop? I must admit the idea is mighty clever Wishing you the Best December Ever! I am off to the beach, flying over the sand I sure hope your December holiday is grand! The trees have grown lights! They warm my nights. I'm careful 'round the candles watching every ember and wishing you the the very best December. the radio says it is New Years Eve What does a ladybug do tonite, Whatever she please so far it's been the Best December Ever! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - From Speckle to Speckles There are not enough minutes in a day to tell you about the dangers that may come your way Not as many hours in a year to tell you of how I wanted you here Speckle to Speckles, Oh! the fun I have had I hope you never are sad, try not to be bad and you will be glad Caring for fifty little babies we're never at ease How does she get her energies? Nancy is like a grandmother now remember Nancy, she's the one with the keys we don't need any of these! Speckle to Speckles, Oh! the fun I have had I hope you never are sad, try not to be bad and you will be glad |
