A Gal Named Eve

There once lived a gal whos name was Eve 
she was married to a man named Steve 
she owned a pet spider 
that she called slow Rider 
quite often he slept inside her sleeve      

Brushing their toes as he crawled aside 
there were so many places to hide 
inside her white bonnet 
without fuss or a fret  
Spider-Rider spun dreams made of hyde 

There once lived a spider named Rider 
so great as a friend and confider
night was so much brighter 
when he slept beside her 
together they slept all the wiser

The Limerick Queen. Excellent triple Limerick, Rose. See spiders can be nice, like the one in the children's rhyme that sat down beside her. :-) Thanks for sharing your poetry with us, my friend. Smiles ~ Blessings Bill
