A Web of Words
Listen to poem:
In the barnyard, on a farm,
Lived a pig with a certain charm,
Wilbur was his name, so bright and sweet,
A special pig, that all did greet.
Charlotte, a spider, so wise and kind,
Took Wilbur under her wing, in her mind,
She spun webs, with words so true,
A plan to save Wilbur, from becoming stew.
The animals of the farm, all played their part,
In helping Charlotte, with all their heart,
The goose, the rat, the sheep, the horse,
Together they worked, with no remorse.
Charlotte's webs, with words so bright,
Saved Wilbur's life, with all her might,
A friendship, so pure, that touched the soul,
A bond that never broke, a story to behold.
In the end, Charlotte left this world,
Her memory, forever to be unfurled,
Wilbur, now a hero, with a heart so true,
A story of love, that never grew old anew.
Charlotte's Web, a tale of friendship and love,
A story that will forever be thought of,
With words so powerful, and a heart so bold,
A legacy, that will never grow old.
