Grandma Attacks Great Whites

I was swimming in the ocean enjoying it so much I back floated and relaxed with my cousins Mat and Hutch All of a sudden Mat broke my dreamy thoughts with a scream The water choppy, he was carried swiftly up stream Two great whites were fighting over which would eat my poor Mat So I chased after them and I smacked them with a big baseball bat Is this human being serious? The biggest shark asked the other I do not know the other shark replied but she looks like my mother I am a grandma you dopes I said and I smacked each hard on the nose This the smaller one said haughtily is not how this kind of shark story goes So I jumped on his slick back. I bucked, screamed, jabbed, and I kicked And I punched him and bit him, making him mad; his skin was quite thick This land polluter is crazy the great whites agreed with some flair So they gave me my cousin whom they had tossed in the air. Because I liked it I gave them another bat smack across their noses She is horrible! The great whites said as I hit them with hoses Sure I got Matt back but due to those shark bullies he now he had PSTD His swimming suit was gone, so he was sheepish being nude in front of me So Hutch and I threw off our clothes and we all swam in birthday suits But those sharks never came back, so glad they were finally loose

LOL! I think you take my grandmothering up a notch! Almost gave my pink yoga mat away until it came in handy as a raft to save us from sharks. So we go swimming in the pretend water and when one of us yells shark we all go screaming onto our raft. Be blessed, sweet Caren!

Another poet gave me this idea, and I loved it so, I had to run with it or in this case, swim with it!

Thank you Bette. I had done a shark poem in "fun" and a fellow poet suggest I hit the shark on the nose, which I thought could make a really fun poem. So I had to do it.

Not only could I, pick me up some day soon, Sunlite, and we will head out to the ocean with a couple of bats, and cats, and wild hats
