This is a drabble I wrote for Vilisse's "Write a Story from a Single Song" challenge on HolyWorlds. The song that goes with it is Ordinary Miracle by Sarah McLachlan.

Intrinsically Simple

The thread waved and danced, floating weightlessly on the slight breeze. She moved it, delicately, fixing it in just the right place. More threads filled the air as she weaved a pattern that only she knew. Glistening in the moonlight, the white threads wound themselves into an intricate design; one never seen before and would never be seen again. Like a queen among her subjects, she moved throughout the white strands, dictating where they should go, and to what they should form. It was a dance as old as time, a miracle so intrinsically simple...
The spider wove her web.
I think this is your best drabble so far.
