Suffolk Mole

by Jane Edwards aged 15

the most pleasant stroll I ever took
was down a wriggly country nook
ending at a cul-de-sac
a lovely place for a tea-and-chat
But beware, you who travel this lane
(for many have encountered a similar pain)
of an tete-a-tete with the Suffolk Mole
for, if surfaced from unassuming hole
will munch your toes through to your nose
and I’m not sure how far the brain really goes
all for his Sunday brunch
and maybe he’ll save your clothes for lunch
So when you fancy a pleasant walk
remember a knife! (and even a fork)
