[bodytext] => A spider swings upon its gallow above the waters shallow All day it spins its delicate web of grace and then soon takes its place He waits until the screen of dusk to fall A shake! that's his call With legs four and four he crawls toward He sees a moth, then moves foward Approaching him he asks "How are you?" Masked in silk the moth responds"Go on do what you have to do" The spider asks" What would that be?" The moth cries"You know to eat me" "I've not planned for you my meal" The moth questions " Then why the web? Aren't you made to kill?" No I’m just lonely he says,” I needed a friend” The moth at ease says “ Than your search is at an end" I see says the spider, but your in need to go “I’ll stay a while, I need not go” The spider smiles and sets him free The moth remains in the silk where he’s meant to be This new friendship will last forever The moth says “The web very clever” “But I didn’t fly into your web prepared to die” “I needed a friend and you caught my eye” [comments] => 1 [counter] => 189 [topic] => 43 [informant] => Bob18Dylan [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 8 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )
