Spider and the Moon

story by: Theresa Taylor
Written on Sep 21, 2017 

There once was a Spider who spun a web to catch to Moon. 
"I'll bottle it up!", she crooned.
So she spun all her finest silk.
She waited will all her arachnid will. 
For she had set her deadliest trap.
But when the night was high and the moon beams bright -she felt her sticky anchor snap! 
The giant white orb lifted her home into the sky
So now we observe, and She swells with pride
When you set the unthinkable goal, when you set it so high
you may become the only spider that flies.
