The Battle of Wriggly Snake, Boldre 2016 |
||
A Native American Indian Story. |
 |
 |
|
Big Chief Lou-zee-Schott, my Medicine Horse Tetuã and Little Miss Chief. |
The Story begins ... |
 |
 |
 |
| ... a dangerous Wriggly Snake has been found, which Little Miss Chief has been playing with. | Tetuã canters in to deal with the dilemma | Oh no, Little Miss Chief is playing with the dangerous Wriggly Snake. |
 |
 |
 |
| ... put it down now ... very quickly! Tetuã is horrified that she is playing with this dangerous creature. | The snake must be 'despatched', so Big Chief Lou-zee-Schott goes in to serious training, | Lou-zee-Schott is now ready to launch the attack
|
 |
 |
 |
| Lou-zee-Schott launches the spear but as usual his aim was not good and he missed the creature. | Wriggly Snake is dead .... oh no he isn't! | Little Miss Chief just will not listen and carries on playing with her new friend. Very dangerous! |
 |
 |
 |
| Having failed with his spear, Lou-zee-Schott stands high up on a rock at a safe distance to fire his arrow, 'This is the tricky bit, please close eyes in case of mistake!' | Wriggly Snake must die. Tetuã looks the other way for a moment. | Something happened? Neither of us are sure what's going on ... |
 |
 |
 |
| Here the story went badly wrong. Lou-zee-Schott was supposed to miss the Wriggly Snake but hit it right between the eyes instead. Fortunately First Aid was one hand offered by the Boldre First Responder Team. | ....Wiggly Snake is now OK again and Little Miss Chief continues her antics dancing, prancing and playing with Wriggly Snake. Oh well, It hasn't eaten her yet!! | Having failed with spear and bow, now Lou-zee-Schott must try with his gun. 'Please everyone close your ears if you do not like pop-pop.' But again Lou-zee-Schott misses. He really is a lousy shot. |
 |
 |
 |
| It is now up to my horse to save us all. Tetuã bounces up to Wriggly Snake and kills the snake by sheer shock. Not a blow was laid on his body. | A very sad Little Miss Chief |
Bring Wriggly Snake to me so that we can do the honourable thing .... |
 |
 |
 |
| We now present the Spirit of Wriggly Snake to the Four Winds, the North, the South, the East and the West. | .... but hold on a moment.... it is not right to kill animals. We should learn to live with them. | ... and Little Miss Chief rightly wants to save the Wriggly Snake and pleads with Big Chief Lou-zee-Schott. Tetuã listens intently. |
 |
 |
 |
| .... in tears Little Miss Chief buries her face in Tetuã's mane, | With full concentration, my Medicine-Horse Tetuã gives the Wriggly Snake the Kiss of Life. | Wriggly Snake wriggles agaIn and everybody is happy once again ... may there be Peace for evermore. |
 |
 |
 |
| Little Miss Chief is herself once more singing and laughing, prancing and dancing. | With a sturdy, faithful horse, we fly the flags of North America in very gusty wind. ... | "HOOOOW!" |
