The Tickle Twitch Spiders

My entry for the unnecessary line challenge

In a cobwebby corner where moonbeams all gleam

Live the tickle twitch spiders who bounce like a dream

They skitter in circles with giggles that squeak

And practice their spookiness seven days a week

🕷️

They wobble on tiptoes in delicate rings

And hum spider songs on shimmering strings

They’re cute as a button but have attitude

A bundle of spooky and sugar sweet mood

🕷️

One time a spider stole my sandwich and refused to apologize.

🕷️

But anyway... back to the cuties who dance in the night

Who twirl tiny lanterns of lavender light

They shuffle and scuffle in their cobwebby queues

Adorable phantoms in midnighty hues

🕷️

So, if you hear tapping that tickles your ear

Don’t tremble or tumble or tremor with fear

It’s only the spiders who love to appear

The sweet little creepers who think you’re a dear
