Ooh, a forest…
Intriguing, she thought,
as she walked around
this wonderful canopy.
It was vast.
It was magnificent,
and there were
so many different trees.
What else would she find,
as she continued to marvel?
Would she hug a tree?
Well, why not.
She was about to open her arms,
but then disaster.
It was a huge snake!
She backed away,
and stood there for a moment.
Then she turned around, and ran.
And she continued to run
until she was in the car park.
This is a great place in Cape Town – have a look: Tree Canopy Walkway

This image shows a wooden platform/ bridge in a jungle like environment. The bridge is made of good quality seasoned wood and so are the railings. We can see tall pine trees on the front and sides of the bridge.

That was dangerous and a narrow escape too

I’m glad she saw the snake in time. A great story, full of suspense. I loved to read about the tree reservoir too. Thanks for joining in Chris

I am not particularly afraid of snakes unless of course I know they are venous and thus deserve respect! But Ooooooo the link took me somewhere magical!

The snake is she herself! She should wait a moment and listen to her own wise words, as Eve had once done. 😉👩🦰🐍
Lovely rhyme!🤗💖
