Holy Cow

I went out hunting with my bow One day in late September It's hard to recall all my trips But this one I remember Sitting on the ground With my back against a tree I sat myself near a path Where I thought a deer might be It was early in the morning When I thought I'd seen a deer When it started getting close to me I saw it was a bear...Yikes! He came as close as ten feet from me And he looked me in the eye I swear, I almost peed myself As he was walking by He knew that I was watching him He knew that I was there But he just kept on walking by I guess he just didn't care Then, early in the afternoon I left to take a break But I had to wait a few more minutes Because I came upon a snake The snake had rattled once or twice And then he hissed at me I stayed there frozen in my tracks Just as quiet as can be I saw a bunch of deer that day But, I never drew my bow I then saw something unusual When It was time to go Coming out from behind a bush And running after me Was a cow that was not nice As he chased me up a tree I waited for the sun to settle Then I ran back to my car After all that, I needed a drink So, I stopped at the first bar Amuse Me With Your Rhyme, Let A Man From Asia Be Your Guide Poetry Contest Sponsored by Nick Trim 7/5/2018
