Pickle the Puffin Coaster

Each coaster measures 12.5cm x 9.5cm and is heat vinyl coated with a cork back.  Proudly designed and printed in Britain, these coasters are the very finest quality. Pickle the Puffin It is a little-known fact, and a bit of a shame that puffins cannot choose their own name They have to do this for each other you see And this must be done most carefully There is a ceremony for the young pufflings Fidgeting they huddle, nudging and shuffling The smallest puffin nervously waddled with eyes down He kicked at the pebbles as the elders stared and frowned His little heart beat in his muffin shaped chest All the puffins received their name until only he was left Noisily discussing and puffing themselves importantly They all looked at each other nodding heads to agree, “Well, he does tend to get himself in a bit of a pickle” So, there you have it, Pickle! They all lovingly giggled Pickle went a little pink in the cheeks and smiled happily Tripping over slightly as he ran to join his new family All artwork and poems <a href="https://trade.lovecountrybysarahreilly.co.uk/copyright-statement/">copyright protected by the Artist.
