Spiders Like to Surf

spiders surf in bathtubs.
they wait through the night,
in little webbed hammocks
for the morning bright.

mommy turns on the water.
they get a running start.
when the wave hits them,
they shred it all apart.

sometimes this scares mommy.
maybe she thinks they'll drown.
so she puts them in a tissue,
now they're safe and sound.
