ride inside
mean washing machine
soiled, soaped, and spun out.
roll into
round hay baler
tightly wound, rightly wrapped.
pass through
giant rotisserie oven
toasted ’til broasted, go round ’til browned.
lie under
road steam roller
laid flat in tar, rode on too far.
Linking with dVerse Poets where we try to convey an emotion through things…

Soon off to bed… started at work 6:30 which is much earlier than usual
Feb 28, 2018 @ 08:51:05
Wow! Sounds like you are totally wiped out! “You have been through the mill,” so to speak!
Feb 28, 2018 @ 10:26:35
A bit fictitious in the extreme…yes, the mill is another thing!

Sounds like life, for the one who does not free oneself.
Feb 28, 2018 @ 10:25:11
We cannot free ourselves…but we can find rest and freedom in Him.
Feb 28, 2018 @ 10:27:16
Yes, you are right.
Feb 28, 2018 @ 02:31:47

You’ve got it…thanks.
Feb 27, 2018 @ 19:23:24
Sounds like it’s been a rough day, lol! Things being combined, pressed, washed and molded into one unit. Hope the pressure has let off

Looks like you had a very busy and harried day. Time to take a break and rest!

Life can be like that…now I’m sitting, sipping tea 🙂
