Creepy-crawley bugs; Grandmother Spider weaves her many silken gems.

Charlotte would be proud of this poem. As a little boy I was always amazed at the size and pattern of spider webs. However, I do get creeped out when I am out running in the early dark morning and my face gets plastered with one! Here's to Shelob -- the ugliest spider I have met in literature. Grandmother beware! are the gems -- dead bugs wrapped up or her webs ??? interesting . . . the words keep turning . . .

Actually, the gems were the morning dew, that glistens in the rising sunlight's rays. I suppose to the family members of the bugs in her web...they would be gems. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment.
