so this came from another thread and a comment I made to someone who replied

when you grew up, was it " the incy wincy spider", or the " itsy bitsy spider"

incy wincy for me

yep... one of the major questions in life being debated right here!

Look, he's crawling up my wall
Black and hairy, very small
Now he's up above my head
Hanging by a little thread

Boris the spider

It's a song by The Who. Take a listen:


And I knew the rhyme as "the eentsy, beentsy spider..." Funny how there are so many interpretations .
And I love spiders. Except for black widows and a very few other species, spiders are wonderful creatures.

Here is Vivienne, one of the tarantulas I owned some years ago. See her tiny red shoes? Tarantulas are fascinatingincy wincy or itsy bitsy beings.
Thanks for this!
