Go Tell

When I went out on the porch this morn, tiny spider's mother had strung her web across right in front of the door.. I did not tell cute tiny spider to go on down yonder and get your mother No, this mother was scary drawn up with her feet pulled in a ball When she stretched out, why I had to move on She straightened me out right fast.. Mothers are like that when their child is threatened.. Just had to write this being Halloween is coming up soon...

Spider webs are yucky when tangled round your head. And waving arms don't do no good. The webs you just can't shed. You run away and try to evade. But them spiders like it also in the shade.

What a terror infested write my friend...as I do hate spiders so much! They scare me for some reason, maybe it's all their legs or their tremendous bite, whatever it is, I abhor them! Fantastic piece, Great Work!!
