A Snapdragons' Greeting
I trotted out through the garden gate, eager for fresh outdoor air! Down the paved path to the park's sunny brick flowerbed, I found a cluster of bright magenta snapdragons bobbing in the midday breeze. Clambering up the rounded border stone, I reached out both hands toward the lowest blossom. With a delicate pinch on the sides of its velvety petals, pop! The floral mouth opened wide! I gave a crisp, theatrical curtsy, greeted it with my chirpiest idol hello, and watched it gently snap shut. What an adorable duet partner!
