Sense Sonnet - Tickler

Class Act - Lincoln Park Zoo

Field trip to the Lincoln Park Zoo,
My fourth grade class watched a corn snake
Having some lunch just like we do,
But nothing to fry or to bake.
Instead, an unthawed frozen mouse,
The snake was consuming for lunch.
So focused at the Reptile House
Was my normally rowdy bunch.
When back in the classroom, I would
Struggle for kids' attentiveness.
So I'm wondering how I could
Learn from secrets that snakes possess.

Such class attention would be nice.
Maybe I should swallow some mice.
