Elves can't catch cold and they never cry.
But any sunny day you may spy
On fields and lawns all under the sky
Their cob-web handkerchiefs spread to dry!

Nice little thought, I remember another like this;

Who is always asking “Why?”
Why this, why that, why then, why now?
Why not, why by-the-by?

This is sweet. A rather lovely way to portray spider webs.
