Spiders
To the tune of "Happy Birthday"
Christian, Nicole, and Shawn
Spiders create egg sacks.
Sometimes carried on their backs.
Spider silk they never lack
For spinning lifelines.

Over 30,000 different kinds,
Some aquatic come to mind.
There are also some that mine.
How many can you find?

Females might mistake a guy
For a big juicy fly.
She sheds no tears
When they slowly die.

Spiders eat things as strange
As birds and small as snakes
And fish from smelly lakes.
They also eat bees.

Funnel-web spiders can hide
In a web that’s outside.
Tarantulas rule with pride
Arachnid spiders are fine.
