Confessions of a slug

A note from Scottie Slug

Hey Deb!

I know I’ve been a naughty slug

Spread slippery, silver slim,

On your prized lettuce leaves.

Just that it's,

So much fun,

Slipping and sliding,

Down the leaves.

Its like a giant slippery slide,

Sliding down I have to scream,

It’s the scaling up again,

That’s not much fun.

Oh yeah! About that party,

The other night,

It really wasn’t planned,
Spare of a moment thing.

I had no idea my friends

Would come and eat the leaves,

I may leave my silver slime,

Spread under the silver moon.

But I would never be seen,

Sobbing over you lettuce leaves,

All I wanted was some slimy fun,

With several of my friends.

 

I sign this letter,

On your lettuce leaf,

Scottie Slug,

In silver letters once again.
