Your poetry is like folk art. I feel like I've step into a time warp and the people are from the Old West. The language should be preserved, and you are doing a great job.

adewpearl,
I'm glad Jake the trickster didn't get away with his
practical jokes. I'm definitely glad he had to skedaddle. I
like your phrases and words ... didn't know diddly squat... brouhaha ... shenanighans. Your poems are very entertaining.

I was so excited when I saw that you had a new poem up that I nearly tripped over myself getting it open. You did not disappoint. Another wonderfully written poem. Do you realize that you used 'schnook' twice? I love your mastery of the English language and your fine skill at turning it into rhyming poetry. I do not have a six star rating or it would be yours. God bless you. Laura

Ahaaaa....looks like the joke's on poor old Jake and now he has to leave with the proverbial tail between his legs.
As always, fine job with a fun story and great word usage.

This poem reminds me of a brawl at one of the local bars here on saturday night. I think Jake must of been one of these rednecks around here. Laughing> The poem was great and I loved the bouncy language. Nothing to correct here,

Hilarious! Amusing! Great fun! I enjoyed reading about Jake the snake. He is certainly true to life... a charming scoundrel indeed. Thanks for sharing.

I have to admire anyone who can incorporate words like skedaddled without ruining the flow of the poem. Once again, great fun with words; i bet you had a smile on your face the entire time you were writing this!

Comment from teafor2
adewpearl--Touche! Finally a prankster having
the tables turned and getting the worst end of
his sorry deal. A well-meaning lesson via re-
demption against a human misbehaving badly. All
done very humorously and poetically. teafor2
