Moonchild25 Winning Entry
Mr. Znake
One day as I strolled along,
An annoying znakey warbled a song.
He slithered across my path with such a din,
And I exclaimed, "Oh what a terrible thing!"
I raised my foot and thunked it down,
N'cried, "That should deal with the aweful clown!"
But then came a squeak, "EXCUSE ME!"
"I believe that's me tail under y'foot, you see?"
He looked at me with a furrowed brow,
I blanched feeling like a milking cow.
"I'm sorry dear sir, " I whispered to him.
"Right you are, I'm Mr. Slim!"
I nodded my head and smiled at his hat,
He nodded at me and gave me a pat.
"It's ok dear girl, I shouldn't have dragged it."
"Your fault?," I gasped, "Why I snagged it!"
The Znake turned and wiggled away.
And I learnt to respect my fellow Znake that day.
