Between a flowering hedge
and garden path illuminator,
an ancient ritual unfolds.
In motion,  her fascinating legs
are silver lit and busy as they knit 
a geometric circle.

Perfect, concentric as she navigates
in  the half light, it glows unfolding
from her orb, ready to be touched
by morning dew.
Circular, suspended...

What if our minds were like spider webs,   
Spreading to the invisible realm?  
Beyond the brain seems blissfully insane
Like a transcendental spell.  

While science is keen to explain our dreams 
And thoughts in pure chemical terms,
I’ve often considered education is littered...

Drawn into the honeyed spider web
Like a hungry fly searching for food
Zap, trapped in a web of lies strown
Love words thrown out like stars above
A whole galaxy whirling bright
Where is that brightest star tonight?

Oh! How I long for that star tonight
Draw me into that tangled...

spider web tightly
strung between old brick columns..

As the morning light came through a crack in the curtains, 
it illuminated the fine thread of the spider’s web.

A spider, not wanting to be conspicuous,

fragile
spidery
silver threadlike street
crossing in nature's G.P.S.
like those swinging bridges in gentle wafting breezes
temporary avenues to more hospitable environmental habitat

The risen sun invisible
Covered by clouds of gray
A spider web made visible
By wet particles this day

Its delicate intricate shape
Coated by tiny drops
Flowing on variable breeze
Like summer's rotation crops

First the droplets of fog flow east
Then they flow from the west
Then they fall downward to the ground
Or...

A spider web is wondrous made
with interwoven threads o’erlaid
of sticky strands to snare the prey
in intricately shaped display
like filamented promenade.

High up, in galaxy brigade
agrouped through gravity obeyed
in Hydra’s grip the stars portray
a spider web.

‘Midst Nature’s splendorous parade
on cloths of heavenly brocade
as earthly spider spins its...

A skinny spider
In the corner of the room –
A breeze shakes her web!...

Mornings are magic in the garden.

Awakening plants open up slowly to the new day. As sunlight comes creeping over the horizon, touching sleeping leaves with gold, dewdrops are drenching the new spring growth. The light shows every spiderweb’s gossamer woven structure, with glittering diamonds hanging...

sunray glitters
on a silken thread
toddler’s finger
reaches for the

This is a garden of sunshine granted
each an escape from our everyday trials.
Where sadness, anger, or lies aren't planted
because we all need a garden of smiles.

Where are poems found in this garden?
A few where Summer leaves barely a trace.
Some on life's dusty olden path less...
