Just Lucky!

Amidst a thick wood was a shrub of yellow flower,

Crawling over its stem, elevated a hairy spider!

With all her intellect, she laid a trappy web,

The stalk of the flower became her new resting hub!

 

From far off a mile came a bumble bee humming,

Among all flowers found this one stunning!

Having a road map in her mind,

She had nothing else to dread!

With glee, she started gathering all the nectar,

Not realizing she's gonna be trapped in a snare!

 

Signalling thread of the cobweb reverberated,

Witty spider was now red-alerted!

Bee just realized she has been trapped,

Wishing the strings somehow could be snapped,

Neither her pleading to 'let go' work,

Nor her stinging could do the spider any irk

 

The spider was just drooling to taste her prey,

Just then, a wild boar came pacing that way,

Peeing on the yellow plant, he left wagging his petty tail,

With the web being washed off the spider now frowned,

The bee now fluttered with total glee,

Silently she thanked the bear for setting her free!

Lifes a waiting game and you never know which side of the game you're on till the last bell rings. It is that uncertainty and unpredictability of a good or bad outcome that makes us galvanize our efforts in life and keep faith in the outcome.
Great read deepika, Very unassuming way to convey such depth! :)

A cute and clever way to play with expectations. Even when something seems bad, it may actually be good. When something seems good, it may end up being bad. You won't know unless you wait and see.
