Swell

or the day the snake started wearing glasses….


Edwin banged on the glass and threw rocks at the birds.

He pushed through the crowds to make sure he was first!

“Where does this door go to?” Edwin asked of his Mum.

“You get back here this instant!  Leave that door knob alone!”

And then he was gone…    As for clues, there weren’t any.

Seems that Edwin that day, banged on one glass too many!

  1. Heh, heh, heh. As someone who spends a lot of time at the zoo and sees a fair number of ill-mannered children, I find this particularly amusing.

  2. Ha ha ha!!! That is awesome! Love the verse and the image both. Super!

  3. he is wonderful Roberta!!! I love this so much.

  7. I definitely love the glasses. Does that enable Mr. Snake to see better or is it just for show. As for Edwin, he may have been better off if he had been wearing some as well. This is wonderful Roberta and makes me think of one of my favorite authors, Roald Dahl. You seem to be able to master the macabre and make it still fun and entertaining.

  8. Perhaps he, Edwin that is…. was wearing glasses. But I know Mr. Snake is most grateful for the specs, as now he can catch his dinner much easier. Thank you Ginger! I love Roald Dahl…. Willie Wonka is my favorite character.
