A Spider Bag

I've a bag for spiders, you may ask why Cannot stand them, when I spy one I cry Pop them into the bag each one I snatch Though they're speedy and difficult to catch. The bag is creepy for it walks the floor Not seen anything alike it before I find it in the kitchen, bedroom too I've even found spider bag in the loo. Can’t decide what to do with the dam bag Dare not throw it away, though it's a drag I could not kill spiders, that would be sad It would play on my mind and drive me mad. What can I do with the bag, tell me please I'm going out of my mind, I believe To put it in a bin would be a sin Perhaps I just must let the bag live in.

Big humor and a silliness that I really enjoyed, from start to finish my eyes were glued! Best Bag of Spiders yet, Belle.:)

Hi I like this poem, because it is something we all can relate to… When my grandson was little, I killed s fly. I felt really bad about it and I nutidf him in a pot outside. I called that my Mr. fly plant. It’s in memory to him and what I did some thing. I am not proud of. My grandson and I had a prayer over Mr.Fly. The plant is on still on my porch. Pangie

Thank you very much Pangie. We have all made mistakes that we regret, yet they make us think twice afore doing what’s not nice or right… Belle.

Thank you so much Ann-Lise, a spider bag I truly wouldn’t keep, even spiders are born free… Belle
