Bathroom Spider

Bathroom Spider
I found a spider in the bath,
and so I wondered what to do
to orchestrate an easy path
to throw it out where skies are blue.

I found my useful plastic jug.
A wooden spoon was also sought.
With these, I chased the gangly bug
around until the beast was caught.

I flung the window open wide,
and hurled it out towards the sky.
In nature, it can now abide.
I could not bear to watch it die.
