Reptiles

Paws
like claws
nan-o, nan-o
changing colors
Chameleon

I saw a picture of a chameleon in a magazine and I was a mazed at their feet, it reminded me 
of the nan-o nan-o hand shake of Robin Williams in Mork and Mindy. Andrea you were right on.

Cute one, Doris. The nan-o nan-o makes me remember that funny show robin williams used to do. Bad memory. Did he even say it that way? Can't think of it anymore. I love that line Paws like claws. Very clever! thanks for reading my poems. Andrea

Those reptiles are really tough. When they fight their teeth are barred. Keep the creative writes going. Mom
