Sounds like you have made a new friend there BRI but who was the one who was idly sitting? me thinks it was you so it was a good job your wife never caught you, But then there again she was probably to busy knitting.

Spiders...they are different. Unlike many creatures, the spider does not seem to mind us....It seems to love people watching. This verse goes to myfavourites, Bri.

I wonder did it remember eating its siblings lol but such is the spidery life the survival of the fittest is not always the fittest way to go. I loved the idea of the spider watching you as you watched it. Of course it may be making plans for world domination one human at a time starting first with you! ! ! !

Was it having this thought: " My, this is a gorgeous day! " ? Was it remembering its mom and when it used to play …. …outside with some of its ninety-seven siblings? Did it recall a picnic with lots of yummy nibblings? ? - - - - - - - -I wonder how did you know this spider has ninety seven siblings!

Bri,10+ for your Spider poem! In your honor, please accept this tribute. whenever I see Bri silently sitting, i will now know that he is spider thinking, trying hard to unravel one simple life which may even be more complex and rife with mystery than that which we call our own a person capable of contemplating the simple things the world is offering, owns a caring and charming soul that is always willing to give and dole friendship and wisdom we all proudly wish to own

Thoughts are like spider web and these capture emotion. We think and even we cannot capture features of spider web. After deeply perceiving spider's life and spider-web, you have brilliantly penned this excellent poem. There are lots of questions about spider's life but through mind the possibilities have been streaming. An excellent and wonderful poem is shared...10
