Notes About The Poem

Spider

The fly on the wall

Not for contest

The fly on the wall has nothing to say 
It encountered a spider’s web one day
Situation was sticky 
And so very tricky
The fly became spider’s tasty buffet

clever limerick and outstanding contest entry. I thought about writing a limerick for this contest. Yours is well done.
