"I slither and slide
and take immense pride
in being a most helpful snake."

and Cock-a-doodle-HISS
did not help Farmer McPeeper wake.

Egads! I'm not sure I like the sound of a fork-tongued wake-up kiss! Perhaps it was best Farmer McPeeper slept through the experience. Thanks so much, Bridget, for bringing a taste of the Arizona desert to TLD!
