The Spider
Eight long legs and a hairy body,
why is it that you make people run?
Don’t they know you are not really nasty and
only want to have some fun?
You work so hard building your home in a
special place,
The early morning dew clings, makes it shine
and gives it grace.
In your web you catch a fly,
that once flew free around the sky.
You think now that you are the winner,
because that fly is today’s dinner.
But there is something, if only you knew,
that bird up there has his eye on you.
