Very cute, Ernestine, much cuter than a slug itself! YUCK! I've gotten their

delightful - the perfect stories for children. And adults as well!

Ernestine, this poem attests to the old saying 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder'. Your slug poem is very cute and the love story charming, but slugs per se? Sorry, but they do nothing for me. love, Allie xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Wonderful, Ernestine......I haven't been about for a while and yours was the first poem I have looked at.
I'll never look at slugs with a shudder any more! ! !

I hope the people see the emotion of the slug here...... I am so happy he found his wife and driven the strife.... I felt the positivity, if that is meant to be felt... wonderful poem, indeed!

Slug's away...To often these poor creatures get bad press, glad to see new light shed on these humble beings
