While flowers might be one of the first things you think about when you think about May, we’ve had them here for two months. By the end of May they are all starting to droop in our heat, not to return until the summer monsoons.

For me, May is about people who have influenced my life. Snake’s birthday is at the very beginning of the month, then we have Mother’s Day and my dad’s birthday was near the end of the month.

So the prompt for the Snake Den this month is people who have influenced your life. It might be family members, it might be friends, it might be teachers or even someone who taught you what you wanted NOT to be.

The term influencer seems to be more of an internet marketing term now, but I want to hear about the people who inspired you to be the person you are today.

Whether you want to write a story, submit a picture, write a poem or even something else, please let us see those influential people. However you feel tells your story the best!
