There’s a snake in me…

small sharp delicate teeth

for eating and defence –

a fork like tongue

for smelling and tasting

the air-

I keep that snake because

the wilderness gave it to me

and it will always be a part of

me!

This is the T shirt

that tucks in the shorts.

This is the saddle

that holds the horse.

This is the sun

that brightens the beach.

This is the pillow

that comforts the couch.

This is the plate

that holds the roll.

This is the food

that feeds the doll.

This is the cup

that holds the tea.

This is the Milo

that fills me.

This is the finger

that fits the ring.

This is the song

that the children sing.
