Laughing Spider

On a single thread
a spider sways in the wind
unheard laughter seen

Prometheus,
  A delightful Haiku, though it is kind of chilling thinking of a laughing spider! Well done!

well which of the above is a haiku?  

........

Hey Jamie,
Teach me will you? how to write one...

You write such wonderfully well that I am afraid I will never learn to be on equal terms... in haiku poetry... but then what cares equality?

regards to a wonderful poet...

Prometheus~

Spider merrily
Swinging from vine in the tree
No Tarzan is he !

Arachnophobic
Breeze from can of RAID ensues
Spider must know fate

For the life of me
I honestly cannot see
Dead spider, laughing !

Wow, I got goosebumps reading this one, I am petrified of those 8 legged little creatures, and if reading this gave me the willies....it must be great.    Bonnie

My apologies to one and all for neglecting to thank each of you for the wonderful and kind replies.....I saw a spider swinging in the wind and thought, people would have such great fun with that....so why not the spider?

Excuse me Prometheus...But have to say to Marge on the last haiku:
(For the life of me
I honestly cannot see
Dead spider, laughing !)

ROTFLMAO!!!

Hilarious Marge.
