The spider scampered high on the limb The swampman knew his outlook was grim Remembering his umbrella, it would protect him From the poisonous bite, that soon could infect him Caught unexpected, he uttered an oath Just before an alligator swallowed them both Rubbing its belly, sighing in content The gator laughed at the twisted event college creative writing class where they threw alot a wierd words onto a list and made us choose from em yuh yuh |

I will now take my bow as the rotten requester, even though this poem is worthy of being seen again, Walt just does not realize the talent he exhibits, but I sink it in his head one of these days. So until then I admit this one was my asking and I am proud of it. |

Very cute, I enjoyed! ![]() *Krista Knutson* As soon as man does not take his existence for granted, but beholds it as something unfathomably mysterious, thought begins. ~*Albert Schweitzer*~ |

Moral: Don't go near the water if wayoutwalt's professor assigns a spider poem. I guess we can be as far out as you. Fun poem, Enjoyed Liz |

This is delightful, Walt! So while we're worrying about one thing 'getting us' something else usually does?!! Denise |
