The biggest spider

Crawled across my ceiling today

I grabbed a towel and softly

Brushed him down

Hoping to take him outside

To enjoy a few more days of sunshine

And summer like weather…

Sadly the spider fell

And scurried away

Hoping to stay inside

For another day

I’m sure he will

Soon reappear

Hoping to stay inside

Til the end of the year

The problem with that thinking

Is that other humans

Living within

Don’t have the same feeling

I do

About crawling things…

They may scream

Or yell

And swat or try

To kill

Just hoping you appear

On one of my days…
