Spider for Tea

Jabberwocky

The spider has eight legs

I counted them it's true,

That means four for him 

and two for me and you.

 

Four should do him fine

That's really still a lot,

That leave four for us

To put into our pot.

 

There might not be much eating 

But at least it will be hot,

The larders pretty empty

So that is all we've got.

 

A little bit of onion

Or maybe a shallot,

Now we're really cooking,

That should hit the spot!
