Oh how diligently
The spider has spun its web
In the corner of a post
To catch
An empheral dewdrop
diaphanous, glistening light
it shines it shimmers
completely caught unaware
In the beauty of all it's splendor~

a tiny black spider
with a dot of red on its back
weaves furiously
back and forth
Unaware that someone is watching
As he criss crosses his web
Within this drop of dew~

Random hues of light
Reflect off each other
As the web of silk dances
Decorating the world with beauty
The beauty of nature
Made possible
By the intricate web
of the spider~

I like how you broke from the verse structure you were using before. Very Well done..

Wonderful imagery, blush.
I felt like I was right there,
watching the spider at work.
Well done.

amazing how life continues to weave such marvelously beautiful spells, to which most of us do not take the time to stop and view...those magnificant miracles...the joy from the amazement of life...

Blush, this is so real that I could almost see the spider weaving its web. Very good writing.
