                I'm normally afraid of snakes but this was a very good post to share!

                    And now that I look at all the comments I see that I did read this 
                
                on that earlier St. Patrick's Day.  I had forgotten.

                    Well told.  This one offers a lot of worthy ideas for illustrations.

                I love how you bring St. Patrick to life with your woods. Great job.

                    Thank you, everyone for your encouragements!
                
                I went back and re-read it myself, editor that I am, and tweaked a thing or two--corrected a typo, added a few words to Patrick's complaint...

                    I enjoyed this one very much. Perfect ending!  Especially loved the 
                
                descriptions, the snake's patterns & colors. More, please.

                Very nicely presented Ciel. A really lovely idea. I thought the serpent might bite him
.
