I can see the snakes eyes crinkling up in wonderment at your antics, and then he probably got upset since you ate the fat, juicy spider and didn't offer him any *grin*
I love your poetry, it captures life and thoughts in brigh strokes of genius.
There was a young woman who swalowed a spider - now we all know why..... good fun.

Oh, those snakes are like that. I am sorry that you ate the spider. I don't like spiders because they spoil the taste of my cud.
I hope you don't see any more snakes in your nice garden.
Especially smart alecky one.
Nice poem.

hahahahah....this was indeed funny. I am not frightened of spiders or snakes...but if one sudden drops on me or crawls into my sleeping bag it can get tense...very well done, Zenith.
hahaha, wasn't a laugh then, but bet it is now!;-)
It always made me wonder garden snakes being green,
as if they grew from the earths grasses.
delightful write!

Cute and funny!!!
And how well I can relate. But you know what? My flower garden is
now five years old, and since that first "scare" by an innocent snake,
I watch, fascinated as they eat bugs and mice in my flower beds. I
am no longer afraid of them, nor they of me.They spend most of their
time sunning, high up, on a rock ledge within the garden.
Of course..Wisconsin snakes are not poisonous.
