I Don'T Care For Snakes

I don't care for snakes They hiss and bluff me I'm not really sure Is he friend or foe Cats, I really take Though cats don't give she any return purr any loves warm glow Steps away not fake, soft as cotton he claws like prickled burrs begins tapping slow Around pretty lake Strolling light as bee Among fair flowers Light dainty halo Set atop him, make head held high as thee proud hero allures and females follow Prancing gay fine rake along path, high knee dance he follows pure His own tune mellow I don't care for snakes They hiss and bluff me I'm not really sure Is he friend or foe By Doris Culverhouse 6/12/2021

That was fun. I don't care for snakes either but cats I love.

I had an encounter with a snake close to my back door and made me think of this poem. I have a big dog, Pipi, a great pyrinese she was standing on top of the snake and did not know it. I am glad it was not poisonous. 8-]
