Highs and Lows

The hunter - he stood on the shores of the loch The monster - she watched as she lurked by a rock The sighting - he spotted her head as she rose The teasing - she vanished, except for her nose The photo - he needed the proof she was there The posing - she looked at the lens with a glare The success - he shouted, 'This cannot  be beat!' The goodbye  - she made up her mind to retreat The  mishap - his camera fell with a thud The ending - she swallowed him whole on the mud written 13th March for Charles' List contest

This is an amazing story Jack, The Lochness Monster, guess the hunter found out that Nessie does exist! Congratulations my friend, a wonder win and a wonderful poem. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
