Bag of Spiders

Bag of spiders, crawling like mice 
From the deep pit, they all rise 
Unto the world that waits outside 
For, they don't need to fear and hide 

For, it is time to see the light 
And face a world that's fair and bright 
Where they can make their vivid mark 
Filled with amber and crystal spark 

Where they can climb the highest mountains 
And dare the dash of looming fountains 
Where on the high trees, they can hike 
And hang around wherever they like 

Where they can dare the gust of air 
Whether it is troubled or fair 
And leave a molded path to follow 
For sons and daughters of tomorrow
