Uncle Jacks Surprise

Uncle Jack decided to surprise me at school
Wore his new Halloween costume
Of himself being caged and carried by a gorilla
He thought I would laugh.
I followed the lead of the other kindergarteners.
We screamed and clutched each other in terror.
The teacher could not calm us down.
Uncle Jack apologized over and over.
I thought it was terrific!
Kindergarten had never been this fun!
