Definition: A machine or other device designed to catch (and sometimes kill) animals, either by holding them in a container, or by catching hold of part of the body.
Alright class, settle down now, let’s take a look and see,
At this word “trap,” it's important for you and me!
The dictionary gives us a clear, simple plea:
“A machine or device, designed to catch – you agree!”
Think of animals, furry, feathered, small,
These traps are built to capture them, standing tall.
They might hold them tight in a container’s keep,
Or grab a leg or paw while they're fast asleep!
Sometimes, sadly, the purpose is to end,
A quicker catch – it’s not a friendly trend.
So "trap" means a tool, a clever, cunning scheme,
To capture creatures, a wild and fleeting dream.
Do you have any questions? Let's discuss with glee!
Is there anything about this that needs to be clarified for thee?
