Poem Title:
Poem
Just a Thought......20 below can be a temp......20 below can also " tempt" Sometimes we have a life long dream... but not sure where to start.... and sometimes we must go to the extreme.. with a thought that's not so smart.... It started with an issue.. she knew she had to resolve.. Unaware of her options, but knew it had to be solved.. He destroyed the girl that she had been... destroyed the world she had lived in... She weighed the pro's and the con's.. and concluded it had to do with ponds... So she set out on a mission.. and decided to save for her own condition. A well deserved vacation in the " Florida Keys".. for her and her honey , and with his money.... The months how they passed... So slowly, then at last... The day they left was 20 below..Brrr..cold Soon they were driving down Old Cheney Road.. A backwoods road where the St. Johns' River flowed.. I hear the fishing there is great... You'll get a bite with very little bait.. They reached the lake in the early morn.. and that is where her plot was born.. She poured the coffee she had made.. and laced it with some " gator aide ".... Here my love she said so sweetly.. I made this special for you my sweetie.. The cast was made, the bait was set.. No reason for her to sweat or fret... Eyes did close and body went limp.. She started to shake and then thought.. Come on girl be strong don't be a wimp.. No one knows we're here or where we're at.. She rolled the body to the edge of the water... heard a splash !..it was only an otter... Within a flash, the body was trash... there must have been 20 gators below.. ripping and flipping the body about.. She packed up and decided to go back the scenic route.... post note: I've always wanted to be my own boss, and now due to my recent loss.. The Insurance is an assurance and I don't have to wait... I'll open a store and call it " GATOR BAIT "
