I made a picture of a snake

Ody likes to draw many things lately and his ability to skecth an image and add color upon it is getting better and better. One night, he enjoyed playing with his deletable drawing tool. He said, “Look Ibu, I draw a turtle” as he showed me his drawing tool. I was kind of smiling to see his picture and suprised by his imagination of a turtle.

The second one he scketched was a whale, it look big, with round eyes, and small fin at the back.

And the last one was a snake, “Ibu, look I made a snake and put it inside a shell”, as he showed me his tool. I barely hide my smile seeing his third masterpiece. 

As Ody told me he drew a snake, I got remembering a book, “Little Prince” written by a French writer. It happened when the Little Prince’s friend made a picture of a snake eating an elephant, elder people around him confirmed that instead of a an elephant inside a snake’s tummy, it was a picture of a hat. Such affirmation made a bit disapointment inside him about how elderly think and appreciate towards something. I tried not to be those kind of elderly since it may hurt Ody’s feeling, yet I keep believing it really was the best he can imagine about a creature.

However, something did cross my mind when I saw Ody’s picture, “Hmmm… it’s not only look like a snake, but it also look like ….” Do you think what I think?
