Thoughts on Spiders

‪sitting patiently ‬
‪on tendrils of autumn mist ‬
‪another fly’s doom ‬

silk architecture
abandoned upon my porch
a cold autumn wind

the grace of sunlight
within the cool autumn air
glimmers of beauty

through the autumn storms
the rose's tenacity
shines through today's sun

these tenacious leaves
their grip strong through wind and rain
while the air grows cold

through the Autumn rain
jewels beading upon these leaves
I'm exhaling fog

within falling rain
I stop my walk to gaze at
this resilient rose

a pause in the rain
walking while there's still sunlight 
greeted by a rose

walking in the rain
hints of red catching my eye
songs within my mind

the grace of sunlight
gently passing through the clouds
standing on moist earth

Saw this on today’s walk. I don’t know this tree, though. Do you?

cold autumnal rain
with intermittent blue skies
alone with my thoughts
