Hi Sally, LOL, they are just MN garden snakes so they aren't harmful, but all the men in his family were afraid of snakes. He is brave otherwise, especially when I see a spider that I hate.
Thanks for your fun review and comments, my sweet friend. Love, Debi

I admire your courage. I am not afraid of snakes, but I do not play with them either. I give them space whenever possible. Believe it or not, I remember playing in my front yard as my parents were doing yard work. My mother spotted a snake coming toward me, she yelled out snake, my father who was holding a hoe, spun around and sliced and diced that snake in a blur of action. I just sat there my mouth agape in wonder. I did not know the old man had it in him.

Hello, my sweet Nomi, LOL, they are just MN garden snakes so they aren't harmful, but all the men in his family were afraid of snakes. He is brave otherwise, especially when I see a spider that I hate. And it isn't that I like snakes that much, but I am not afraid of them either. What your dad did is usually what the guys all do here. Too gory for me, and besides they help get rid of our other state bird, the mosquito. haha.
Thanks for your fun review and comments, my awesome BBBB. Love, Debi

Debi, This is a very well written Quatern poem you have penned about the boat he took to the lake. I would have passed out if I saw any snake in my vehicle, especially more than one. You did a really great job with this. love and blessings, teri

How scary this is, to see snakes where one wouldn't expect to see one, in the boat, where one would Normally catch fish, or at least hope to. Your poetry is going from strength to strength as God guides your hand, and teaches you the beauty and the power of words. Beautifully written Debi, blessings Roy

Now that may tame me down a bit. LOL

But very few people die of snake bite, they are pretty shy.

Nicely written Quatern about a frightening encounter. Snakes give me the creeps and being in a boat with them - ugh!
I guess it was mac and cheese for dinner that night.
Enjoyed reading this one. Good job.
