Freds Opossum Story

opossum lies in the street today
I do not approach it right away
like to keep myself safe said Fred
these creatures often just play dead
Wife said get a shovel and bury it!
Fred did not want to, but she had a fit
When he got back the opossum was long gone
This was a bit of a relief to Fred, he told only one.
