1. Well, it starts out sounding kind of like a riddle, like the ones told in The Hobbit. I personally find it kind of playful, especially toward the end, when it's like someone teasing a kid and pretending they're going to eat them, and the kid knows it's a joke but plays along anyway.
We do see sunsets on Mondays when we drop Abby at ballet lately, but thanks to the hill and trees to the west of our house, yeah, we don't see them very often.

ReplyDeleteI like that comparison! It does have a little bit of a riddle thing going on.
Delete2. Sunsets, probably. I'm never really out to see a sunset, but maybe that's what makes me so fond of them (or, more likely, it's The Outsiders)

Delete1. I think it's just sweet, and kind of sentimental.
ReplyDeleteIt definitely has a sentimental vibe!
Delete2. Tigers! Definitely tigers. Or buttercups, or fall leaves. Or maybe goldfish. As in the snack that smiles back, lol. But seriously, I love goldfish
ReplyDeleteI don't think you'll run out of poetry subjects for a while :-D
