Daddy Longlegs

Daddy Longlegs go away!
I toss you from my page again;
Determined you'll be in my light,
You think this is some game we play?
I toss you further out of sight!
Pick another place to play!

My gentleness is all in vain,
You climb back up with all your might;
I sigh, I guess you can remain,
Sit quiet and I'll let you stay.
Don't bother me so I can write.













Notes:
Written approx. 1998
