ARRABELLA THE ARACHNID


watery sunlight
a cobweb sparkles
intermittently

Celia Crook
morning after —
the spiders' webs
heavy with dew

Alison Williams
lake picnic
a tiny spider swings
between grass blades

Maria Steyn
the moth's movement
in the ragged cobweb
just nightwind

David J. Platt
new dog —
chasing spiders from
the old kennel

Catherine Mair
white-tailed spider
the kindergarten child
shows it for news

Patricia Prime
a tiny spider
crossing the windowpane
stops at a raindrop

William J. Higginson
hard rain
      the spider's web
becomes a swing

Owen Burkhart
