On the Way to School - Charles Ghigna
I'll tell you why I'm tardy and I hope my excuse will do.
I stopped to view upon a leaf a spider and some dew.
She spun a web before my eyes with a soft and silver hue,
And when she looked, I looked at her and whispered, "Peekaboo!"
I think I may have startled her and so I waved good-bye,
But when I turned around to go, I met a butterfly!
I almost caught him in my hand to bring to class for you,
But when I tried to peek inside, away my treasure flew.
And that is how I'm tardy, but I had to tell you why.
It's all the fault of a spider's web and a sneaky butterfly!

I really like that, thanks for sharing.
Ha ha!
This was just like my walk home from preschool, when I decided to let the little'un out of the pushchair to walk home.
Bad idea.
Who'd have known that stones could hold such interest for a 21month old?
