Bam Bam Bambi

I just put the “BAM!” in Bambi Out there on the street As the sunlight was all but vanished Who should I happen to meet But a cute and cuddly deer, Dear Just prancing across the road The van met her in the middle I’m afraid they were both KO’d I’d like to say that the dear vanished With a look and a limp she walked away I’d like to say nothing was damaged But it didn’t go down that way I didn’t have time to avoid her I didn’t have room to stop Bambi now lives with her mother And the van’s going into the shop And me, well my knees can’t stop shaking And my heartbeat’s a mile a minute In a battle ‘tween deer and an auto It’s a dead heat and neither can win it Mdailey 10/29/11 Written for a good friend who had a run in with a deer last evening. I was goaded into writing another verse - - - Twas the night that Bambi got busted Out on a lonely road This jay-walking deer got dusted As out of the woods she strolled I admit that my reflex have rusted The outcome so easy forebode To say the least, I was disgusted To see Bambi – poor deer - explode
