Slugabed Vs. Spider

Different, Free Verse

The slugabed rarely moved upon his bed

While the spider slowly spun his web

Crisscrossing his web over slugabed's head

Gradually slowly working his woven tapestry

 

Work, rest, check and test_busy and rest

Web slowly spent all the ends tied and kept

Slugabed tried to raise his sleepy head

Came eye to eye with spider and web instead

 

Moral of this story is __work_accomplish much

View and check your handiwork

Rest a little and sleep on your bed

Don't be a slugabed never raising your head

Author's Note

New vocabulary word..I thought that I would try to use..

wonderful story telling , lyrical and love the moral spun within ~

[Desert Dreamer]

This is my first experience with this word "slugabed" although the meaning is intuitive. There is a lot to be learned from the spider slowly spinning her web. Eye contact with a spider is an interesting thing as well, usually only a few kinds of spiders will stop what they are doing and look at you.
