Light Bites

Neville

Light Bites

 

 So how are things today? The spider asked the fly ..

   All caught up .. The fly replied

     I thought as much, the spider drooled, my appetites returned ..

        Oh what a tangled web we weave....
        Reminded me of my grandfather that used to sing to the kids "Baby bye there's a fly let us watch him you and I....." Oh yes I know it has much deeper meaning as well.

          Thanks sorrenbarrett & you bet'cha

        • Doggerel Dave

          So this spider, in conformity with modern taste, has dispensed with the parlour and all that palaver and went straight.....even avoided the chase...?

          • Neville



            There was not enough time to do otherwise ..

            • Doggerel Dave

              Come on...the spider wasn't starving...I ain't going to pay full price if the parlour isn't bought back.
              Sorry Neville - even I've got standards......

              • Neville



                reluctantly reinstated .. my word, what a palaver ..

              • Tom Dylan

                A nice write, mate. Made me smile.

                • Neville


                  Good to hear Tom, thank you .. Neville

                • Bella Shepard

                  Quite a write, I shall never look at a spider web in the same way again. Poor fly!

                  • Neville



                    I feel sorry for them as well Bella ..

                  • MendedFences27

                    Spiders win in my book. Flies are a nuisance. Clever that you gave them the power of speech (and drooling?).

                        And so ends the fly's day. But good for the spider. 🪰🕷️
