Caren Krutsinger Poet Light Verse

Alligator Soup Please

Conversation with a Five Year Old
Would you like some alligator soup?
I don’t know. What does it taste like?
Alligator
Well, sure I guess I will have some.
Great! All you have to do is catch the alligator.
Isn’t that the cook’s job?
And you get to cook it too.
Great!

Gershon Wolf August 6, 2019 at 9:39 PM Pretty funny! Very realistic. Exactly how five-year olds think. :) gw Caren Krutsinger August 7, 2019 at 11:48 AM I can just see me hunting one, lugging the body back to my lair and having enough energy to cook it. What pot would I use anyway?
