Only you Bill, only you. Who besides God shows love to a shrew? I know, another shrew and you. Where would a shrew sleep? Any darn place that he wanted to. Why? Because he is so darn small he would probably escape notice of most people, but probably not you. You are one heck of a guy, believe me for I do not lie. To love a shrew is not easy to do. Perhaps only God and you.

Shrew have big hearts; the size of a grape pit.

Lol. Good fun with rhymes. And how would you keep the shrew from being eaten by any number of other non-vegetarian animals?

"Write it some rhyme?." (Did you really mean a period after the question mark?)

No. Nor did I need double question marks. I think I typed this on my iPhone. That?s a squinty procedure.

Ha, I have no idea why, but your artwork just had me in stitches. I guess it's not often where we s is for shrew. Funny!

Another terrific and highly original poem, Bill.

Great job!

Hi Bill, this is a very clever poem as so many of yours are. I liked this poem a lot, but I had to look up the word Shrew before I could really appreciate it. Well done and good luck. All the best. Ulla:))

Clever rhyme and plenty of energy. Posing questions as you do in this is a good strategy. Children in particular would like that. I don't know whether shrews would prove much of an attraction at a zoo. They're so small. Maybe some kind of special setting could be arranged for them. Maybe put them in costumes so they'd be noticed. I think I'd just leave them be. judi

Hi, Bill;
I think the shrew is a cute little animal when I can see him from far, far away. Those beady little eyes, and snake-like tail...ugh. All that aside, your poem was cute, and I think the zoo would have to build a lucite box to keep him in - the holes for air would need to be microscopic,

I think I would tame it first, that's if you can reason with a shrew, and then we would be friends, which may solve a few of the above problems, a fun write Bill, love Dolly x

A nice photo that complements your poem very well. Did you get many reviews? This one rhymes all the way with mainly AABB rhyme. I did not find any mistakes and liked it.

You create the most fun rhymes with your animal characters and your hilarious human characters as well. What a great imagination! You bring them to life with your clever rhymes and dialogue, the roaches were my favorite. Thanks for sharing your wit.

This speaks about a shrew, peculiar in shape, you cannot keep in a cage or zoo; sharing shrew world two would be majestic, well worded, well done. KEEP WRITING, INSPIRE CHANGING. DR ALCREATOR
