Reptilian Romance (Part Three) Poem by Tom Billsborough

Reptilian Romance (Part Three)



Their ears have gone. They've lost their speech.
Communication's out of reach,
So baby snakes will never know
Snaky Sagas from Long ago.
Say Ah! Their parents cannot teach!

And all because of Sami's blunder
Reptilian culture's blown asunder
The sadness of this tale
Will make you want wail
I hope it makes you wonder!

So off we go along on Sami's trail
As she hops along quite smartly on her tail
With many a little bound
Soon Eden Park is found
She makes towards her favoured Ice Cream stall.

But tragedy awaits. The gates are closed
A brief new notice there imposed
'Sundays are for prayer'
Sami cries..Oh, S'not fair!
As all her dreams of play dissolved.

It's the sad story of the Talking snake, as it appeared in the Garden of Eden. Ends up crawling on its belly as God ordained. I aassume that before that they bounced along on their tails
