Poetry: ~A Spider’s Web~

droplets of water

graces a spider’s web

forming illusions of reflection

tell me, what you see

☼☾☆

when you gaze into these drops

dreaming from the heart

are they borrowed or yours

tell me, sincerely

☼☾☆

when the glow softens, at the end of this day

and twilight dims the light

reflections turn inward

tell me, what transpires

☼☾☆

droplets of water

gracing a spider’s web

now forming reflections of reality

tell me, what you believe

☼☾☆

reflections, of the heart

must always find their way

becoming reflections in the mind

so they can emerge again, tell me

I captured this spider’s web on September 5, 2013, as I walked around a nature park in the Big Thompson Canyon. The spider build it’s web up against a big boulder and was almost hidden among some foliage. I took the shot looking straight down.

WOW! And what lens did you use? I have a macro lens, but haven’t experimented much with it…maybe it’s time!

I enjoy your poetry as well…

Hi Gay, I have a Canon macro lens, but I have not used it a lot. I used my Tamron 18 to 270mm lens to capture this image. As you can tell, I love taking close-up shots.

Thank you for always commenting with your kind words.

I read a comment you posted on – Oh the places they go – stating your were heading to Georgia. Is that where you are from. Howard and I are from Louisiana. Safe travels, always!
