Ronovan, from Ronovan Writes, hosts a weekly Haiku Challenge each week. His prompt words this week were: “style and fresh.” I used “alert,” for fresh and kept the word style.
“The Lacemaker”
She traps and ensnares –
alert only to her craft,
spinning her rare style.

Spiders and their webs are fascinating. Great haiku.
Thanks, Michelle! This was one of those swamp spiders! ❤️
I love this Colleen. The busy spider creating her masterpiece to kill! 🙂
Oh, thanks Judy! ❤️
A great spin… on the words!
Ha, ha, Olga! How clever! 😄❤️
I’m entranced by spiders and their web weaving. Love the photo and words.
Thank you! This was a spider I found in a swamp when we lived in Florida. She was huge! 🕷
As long as she’s in her web not in my collar, I’m happy. 🙂
Ha, ha! I agree. They are fascinating but they still scare me! 🕷😕
Lovely, Haiku, Colleen. I can see her spinning her magic 😉
I love the illusion of webs and lace. It is perfect to set the mood with the swamp fairies. 😉 <3 Thanks, Mel. You are just a sweetie. <3
Beautifully woven, Colleen. Spider webs fascinate me!
Thanks, Noelle. Aren’t they interesting? 💖
A fascinating haiku, I had the vision before I saw the image.
Oh… I did it right then! Thanks, Denis!
Beautiful, a very inspiring picture.
This is the view on my walk with the dogs! 😊
Colleen! Your photo of the spider is chilling! Yipes, she’s a big one and I love your choice of words “trap” and “ensnare”…And spider webs are indeed so rare and unique..
Great haiku, as always!
Hi, Lia! I found that web on one of my walks in Florida. Scared me when I was how huge she was! LOL! ❤️
Yipes! Good thing you didn’t walk into it !!!
The swamp was filled with them! Oh, and snakes! They were security for the fairies. 😘❤️
