Purple was the color
of an intricate web,
perfectly embroidered.
A talented spider worked all morning
hoping to inject venom
Into a helpless victim.
A child blowing bubbles, saw them captured
Inside the hanging masterpiece.
The colors were vibrant and clung to
the web for a while, dissipating into
a rainbow’s burst.
His mom captured this moment on camera.
The spider had never seen such beauty.
