The Brontosaurus Bop

They thought in a dance they'd engage
As they lumbered about in a rage
These two with their scales
Thrashed about with their tails
Shook the ground in this pre-human age

They be-bopped with all of their might
These beasts that were really a sight
Not known for their grace
These giants saved face
By causing each other dire fright

So into the night they would dance
A sort of behemoth romance
They made history
An unsolved mystery
And quite a bizarre circumstance!

Were they doing the "Monster Mash," Deb? This is a very cute take on the contest and I wish you success. Hold fast to your diet -- I didn't really buy the Godiva Chocolates, but they were tempting! Love, Carolyn
