“That scorpion stings!” cried the five-year-old boy.
“I’ll bring in the robot! Attack, bot! Destroy!”

And in his small sandbox he buried his toy.

Very evocative for me, as I once buried my ‘dead’ toy soldiers in rows in the earth.
Spooky Lego scorpion too. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.

Pete, I was inspired by a Fox News story entitled, ‘Deadly’ scorpion sighting on English street turns out to be child’s toy. Interesting how you related personally to the limerick!
