Crooked Cottage

Deep in the bowels of the mushroom forest There is a crooked cottage with a mind of her own. She does not let just anyone visit. If a toad or a worm try to get in, she bars her doors. If a spider wants entry, she willingly lets it in. She loves spider webs and has many already. If a fly comes by, she easily allows entry. Something has to feed the spiders.

'A Fly Went By,' wrote Dr. Seuss -- but never by this Crooked Cottage. How's the cottage cheese in there, by the way? Keep smiling, Caren.
