THE SPYDA by Russ McKay

There once was a girl named Ida

When about to sit down she spied a

Large crawly thing

From the ground emerging

Caused her to exclaim “It’s a spyda!”

Well she was so scared she froze

So numb she could not feel her toes

The spyda kept crawling

It’s nearness appalling

Then it suddenly jumped on her clothes

Ida screamed the loudest you’ve ever heard

The spyda thought her loud screaming absurd

Because of her fears

He had to cover his ears

Even his eyesight was blurred

Well the townspeople all came to see

What the reason for screaming could be

Ida stricken with fear

As the people came near

Yelled “Somebody please help me!”

Then Ms. Froggy leaned over to Ida

Said “My Dear that’s only a spyda”

“No reason to hate him”

Ms. Froggy then ate him

Ida’s spyda was now deep insida
