Haiku – Creepy Crawly

Gliding on your web

Moving towards the trapped fly

Time to have a meal

+

  Spider dangling high

Spinning its web with quick ease

Time to set the trap

+

Sticky spider’s web

It’s prey caught in the death grip

No chance to escape

Since this post is about spiders.

Here’s a shot of one of my favorite superheroes along with a Haiku I wrote sometime back.

Crawling up the walls

Web slinging superhero

That is one cool suit

    Got the creepy crawlies myself now. LOL I love watching them but I’m always tempted to rescue their victims.

      I couldn’t imagine rescuing those victims. Spider webs just freak me out – too sticky to get rid of.

    I hate spiders! I am reviewing a novel with some very hungry spiders in it in a couple of weeks and I itched and shivered my way through it. I’m getting all tingly just thinking about…THEM. LOL

      I do agree. Imagine what it would be like if we could spin webs.

    I enjoyed each of your haikus. ☺ the last one was the perfect finishing touch. After all you just can’t leave out Spiderman! 😉

      He was the first thing I thought of when I saw the prompt.
