Meaning

Snake

Mnemonic

There is an insect on the roof in a spoon. It's there for the eating, and it's how you plan to attract a snake to your roof.

Snakes love insects, especially when they're ready to eat on a spoon. But, snakes don't usually go on top of the roof, so that's why you have to tempt one with an insect in a spoon.
