As morning breaks on a new day dawning,

rain pours cradling puddles in open cracks;

dew forming on blades of lush grass...while

spider spins a song full of gossamer dreams,

 

with no concept of my presence

busy on its journey as it weaves,

silently progressing...each strand

a thread of nature's sweet melody.

 

Your complex movements inspiring

so whimsical in motion...resemble

the dance of the seven veils...or

the flames from a burning fire,

 

as drops of rain cascading...pluck

at your delicate harp of fine yarn,

gracing your work with their pearls

of wisdom; achieving perfect harmony.

A spider plucking its web strings. I like it. No less, to the rhythms of the falling rain. No fools here. A nice little yarn you have spun!

Hi Rhiannon,

you're so right, there is so much beauty to be seen on a wet or dewy morning, in fact the rain is pouring down as I write.

I'm so glad I could remind you of nature's magic and thank you so much for letting me know.

Hi Bee,

I was just thinking that even though we can't hear it, there is silent music to be found in nature's wonder. It always amazes me how a spider manages to weave such a perfect web, the concentration and effort that goes into creating, astounds me. 

Many thanks for reading and your words.

It flows so well and so reading it becomes effortless and more energies can be spent seeing the images in your mind. Wonderful work. I imagined the spider represents a person close to the observer. Someone who goes about their day oblivious to even your existence but so beautiful at it you cannot help but still find it enduring.
