Serpents, scorpions, owls

Entry for: Serpents, scorpions, owls poetry contest. Sponsor: Sara Jama I think I have met them all - the sneaky serpent - - the toxic scorpion - - the wise owl - There are some things in nature to be cautious with, amongst the multitude of things to enjoy People can reflect these very things As I walk through life, I observe the reflections I make choices along the way, as best I can The owl hoots to remind me, he or she is still there As well as lessons I have learned - and I will not break - 4/3/25 (C)opyright
