Along Came a Spider

She comes every year to decorate our corner 
Between the house and the garage
Building a gorgeous web that I will not let anyone touch
I anxiously wait for rain, for that is when it glistens
I have not been disappointed by her in fifteen autumns

I kind of love her Ilene - no one is allowed to touch that web.

The web is one of the most intricate constructions of nature. I find them fascinating, as well.
