The Abominable Snowman and the Yeti

The Abominable Snowman and The Yeti



Geezus ! what was that !
I saw something outside my cave
And there the footprints leading away
Across the white waste lands of snow
They look kinda big
For it to be me walking in my dreams
And why would I be out anyway
Its so flippin’ cold

Was that the wind I heard moan
Sounded eerie
Kinda creepy
Geezus Christ maybe I am not alone !

Crunching, crunching soft and quiet
I can hear something stealthy
Its coming close
Sniffing and snorting
Maybe it found my pee in the snow
Oh god no !

Quiet ! Shhhhhh I didn’t mean to say Quiet ! quite so loudly
Quiet…………
Maybe it will go away
And I’ll live to see another day
But what’s that !
Has it found my home
I thought this entire mountain was my own

Its coming in !
Oh my God it looks like me
All white and fur and burly
It seems a little cautious though

Hello…. What does it mean Hello !
Hello dinner ! ? I have to wonder
But it has found me
What ever it maybe 

Then it said “Hello I am a Yeti”
Yeti…? I think my father told me about Yeti
Strange creatures and oh so solitary
It said quite softly and kinda sweetly
“May I come in if I can?
Its kinda cold out there in the snow all alone”

Now I see it
Its not quite as big as I thought it was
Kinda cute and white a furry
Hmmmm… looks kinda sexy really

So I reached out my hand and said “come on in”
Introduced myself
“Hi, I’m the Abominable Snowman” 
 
She said with a sigh “yes I know”

………. ? ¿ ? ¿

Oooh, how I love the way this story unfolds, Colin. Great mix of suspense and humor. I laughed when you introduced yourself and also when the furry creature began to appear "sexy." I've been meaning to research "yeti," and now you have given me the inspirational kick I needed. Awesome work from a very talented poet. You are certainly among good company in my favorites. Love, Carolyn
