The Oversexed Spider

I'm glad it wasn't a tarantula.

I was taking a bubble bath one night,

I saw a spider beneath the skylight;

I was relaxing as I watched him crawl

across the top of the ceiling wall.

 

Than he disappeared out of sight

and I thought everything was all right;

But out of nowhere he appeared

upon the bathtubs edge he peered.

 

He dove into my gardenia bath

disturbing my primrose path;

I screamed and jumped out of the tub

quickly thinking I pulled the plug;

down the drain it went...yes...UGH!

 

As I stood there dripping all wet

I felt like little Miss Muffet,

I guess it was her spider I met.

Ahhh! He spied you from above and liked what he saw. He only wanted a closer look, you had to go all Black Widow on the poor little guy! Ha! Loved this, Rose. Thanks for the heads up! Angi~

[SyberRose]

[Stella Armour]

wonderful, i am scared of spiders too, especially those big ones in the bath, love your humour Rose...

[SyberRose]

Thank you Stella...my mother told me that my grandmother would never kill one...she would always pick it up and take it outside...I dont take after her haa.

[Stella Armour]

ooh i could never touch a spider, i know a lot of people like your grandmother who won't kill them because it's supposed to be unlucky. ..

[SyberRose]

It was my English grandmother...my mothers mom.

[Stella Armour]

that makes a lot of sense, i don't usually admit to drowning them because people tell me off...lol

[Ency Bearis]

[quinfinn]

aw, he just wanted to get in the tub with you! poor little guy....this is clever and fun, a splendid read!

[Deborah]

That was really good. I love that you are a very visual writer. Your reader can feel they are right there with you. That's unique. I will read more at a later time. Keep up the good work.

[SyberRose]

Thank you and I will read more from you too...SyberRose

What a crazy spider. I may have been excited
by the spider`s view, but a spider toying with
inter-racial dallying ? Is Syber Rose related to
Cyber Rose ? Perhaps the spider thought so.
This is the kind of poem anyone will enjoy,
Rich , poor, educated, unschooled and spiders.
Thanks (a lot)

[SyberRose]

This is great! Definitely my kind of poem, funny, an odd little slice of life that you have captured wonderfully here. That spider had no idea who he was dealing with! :) Great! Thanks for the morning smile!
