The green spider climbs
Her invisible ladder;
Soft threads mesmerize.

The green spider climbs
Her invisible ladder;
Soft threads mesmerize.

Thank you! This post will eventually have a picture, but right now my laptop won’t connect to the internet so my pictures will have to wait. Enjoy the bare words while you can

Not ever having seen a green spider before, I’d be mesmerised no matter what she was doing!

She was incredibly small–almost didn’t see her just floating by

Beautiful. I love all the haiku some have written using ideas from nature. I love the delicacy of that last line.

Thank you so much! I tend to write more senryu than haiku, but I enjoy reading everyone else’s haiku!
