COBWEBS, by AMOS RUSSEL WELLS Poet's Biography First Line: Little fairy kerchiefs Last Line: What would the fairies do? Subject(s): Cobwebs | ||||||||
Little fairy kerchiefs Spread on the grass to dry; Little fairy hammocks Swinging in branches high. Funny fairy cables Stretched through the airy sea; Funny fairy bridges Reaching from tree to tree. Dainty fairy ladders Scaling the garden wall, Dainty net to catch them, -- If fairies ever fall! Busy fairy workman, Spider of gorgeous hue, Should I steal your glue-pot, What would the fairies do? | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...GOD PREACHES by EDITH BARRETT (PARKER) HINCKLEY A FLY CAUGHT IN A COBWEB by RICHARD LOVELACE COBWEBS by CLIFFORD JAMES LAUBE A BATTLE SONG (WRITTEN IN THE WORLD WAR) by AMOS RUSSEL WELLS A BELATED MEMORIAL by AMOS RUSSEL WELLS A BIBLE LOVER'S THANKSGIVING by AMOS RUSSEL WELLS |
