The Stealth of Her Design – v5

In the early morning dew-light

the stealth of her design

the lines and connections

the intricate lattice

revealed. Ribbons, threads,

concentric ovals, tangents,

rays, lines radiating outward

All of her artistry

a fleeting display

Before the warming

the bleeding away of the fog

dewdrops into vapor

Her trap, her net,

hidden once more

ready for her prey

her breakfast, her trap hidden

just beyond, outside

our bathroom window
