Snake

snake
                slithery snake 
                     slippery slithery snake
                         smiling slippery slithery snake
                              sensory smiling slippery slithery snake
                       sensory smiling slippery slithery snake
                searching for some dinner


	Snake glides
		Through grass
		         Over
			Pebbles
			          Forked tongue
			Working
		   Never
		Speaking
			  But its
				Body
				        Whispers
					Listen

I like his a lot..perhaps more by not using A at the beginning of those lines so they all start with a hissing s sound, but still good as is. Especially the concrete form of the snake slithering. ~Jan
