Natures House Guest
We noticed one day we had a guest
It seemed to be looking for a nest.
From the window, up across the wall,
And up to the ceiling, oh so tall.
It was fat, and had eight fuzzy legs.
So cute, could it be a her with eggs?
Then she started to look very thin.
She needed to be out, not be in.
Nature wants us all to have a place,
A place to call home, have our own space.
‘Twas our hope when we put her outside
In a big fern so that she could hide.
To spin her web so that thru the night
She’d catch a meal under the porch light.
We had our house guest for just a while,
And Nature gave us a little smile.
