This is a free verse poem from my poetry book, “Melodious Verse, A Collection of Poetry and Verse”. Gossamer Carpets in the Spring. Shimmering lights the color of fire from the early morning sun dance upon gossamer carpets covering fences, trees and grass, the hair of angels covering the world of fields and forest in the spring. Invisible to the eye, newly born spiders cast out webs like a fisherman casting his net to catch fish, they cast to catch the air and drift upon the currents in the wind to a new home. Far from their place of birth they set down to create a place in the grass to feed on the newborn offspring of the creatures long dead in the fall. Spreading over all the world of meadows and forests alike, creating monuments to aeons of evolution. Finely spun webs of architectures too numerous to count they set their traps to await the unwary victims of inexperience they feed upon. In time they grow to be formidable predators in a microscopic world of god’s creation, creatures so varied and strange in form as to astound the imagination of diversity. In this world even the predators are prey to the wasp or a sparrow, creatures to feed their young in nests or a hive. Not all succumb to the predators, many live to mate, reproduce and lay eggs to create gossamer carpets in the spring.
