Free At Home Poem by Ryan Alchakaki

In the path of humans a spider built a 'home'
Crafted with care it looked like a dome
A net of slim wonder at the gate of Rome
.
The morning suddenly came; light gained a name
Everyone gathered to enter and then felt ashamed
'Who will dare to go first', a man loudly said
A knight pulled a sword leading a start of a raid
One tender hearted stood astride blocking the way
Asking the crowd to cross the moat back for the day
A week passed and the spider enjoyed a fat pray
A brave man, carrying black brushes and bars,
Blocked the silver lights of the moon and the stars
Feeling a great threat: He, without blink or regret,
Sneaked in at night through the wonder net
To life he said: 'Even slim obstacles we won't let'
'No strings attached', strive to be free at home.
