Skywatch Friday- A Noiseless Patient Spider

A noiseless, patient spider,
I mark'd where, on a little promontory, it stood isolated;
Mark'd how, to explore the vacant, vast surrounding,
It launched forth filament, filament, filament, out of itself;
Ever unreeling them- ever tirelessly speeding them.

And you, O my Soul, where you stand,
Surrounded, surrounded, in measureless oceans of space,
Ceaselessly musing, venturing, throwing, - seeking the spheres to connect them;
Till the bridge you will need , be formed- till the
ductile anchor
hold;
Till the gossamer thread you fling, catch
somewhere, O my Soul.
-Walt Whitman

My thanks to the team of Skywatch Friday

  3. The spider looks like it is flying in mid-air. A tiny creature against the massive darkening sky. You have a lovely poem to match too.

  6. Unique and lovely SWF. I covet my spiders in the garden, even when I sometimes retreat with a hairnet...gosh it can stick.

  7. Love the spider against the sky. Reminds me I don't think I've seen a Skywatch photo of this kind. And the poem complements the picture beautifully.

  22. With such features, it can make any phone user,
    fall in love with photography. In order to test your personal computer memory, try using some game that
    normally slowed down your computer. IT includes a special feature for
    rapidly discovering lost data without touching
