Best Gator Poems
Gator BaitCountry living in New Hampshire was like heaven on earth.
It was Nature in her glory with the spring’s rebirth.
We owned a big pond and had the wildlife come around…
It was beautiful tranquility that left us spellbound.
It’s city living for me now in Georgia, and a...

Mr. GatorOlive glitter skin sparkles below Carolina rays,
Mud Leather carefully placed as evening attire,
Mr.Gator whips his jeweled tail frantically,
Beckoning his lover to immerge.
No response.
Heartbroken, he crawls silently towards another pond.
Mating season minus a mate is not much fun!...

Old Bleached GatorOld granite face enjoyed job in sewer
He was king of the under ground brewer
Everyday he'd hide away
With the hot lines he did play
Then old bleached gator scared him away...

Wally GatorWally Gator at Royalty Court
A new friend we’ve met, a neighbor of sort
Climbed up from the pond to sun on the lawn
Neighbors are nice but the line has been drawn
He can rest on the bank; get a tan should he choose
Pose for some pictures; be...

The Gator BaiterWhenever I visit the Louisiana bayou,
gator hunters fight and argue to have me on their crew.
I only bait their lines, I don't hunt the alligator.
All of the locals refer to me as The Master Baiter.

I don't like that reference actually.
I wish they'd come up with...

Will a Gator Acquiesce To a Half NelsonDreams of sleight, money changed hands
Heads or tails, they're telling tall tales
Scandalous rumours and urban legends
Half-baked former spies spinning yarn
To a troop of campers sick of eating yams
Tell me something I don't know
Desperate times calling for desperate measures
I've got a lot of questions but will...

Snappy the Lost Baby Alligator GatorOnce upon a time in a magical
Pond there was a
Baby alligator name Snappy
Due to a storm that quickly appeared
He was swept away from his mommy
So, he set out on a quest to find her
He came upon a pig pen, the pigs
Were scared to death when...

We Call Him Kitty GatorHe was big, rough, burly, with tattoos everywhere you could see.
Up both arms, down his neck; a big boy, weighted two thirty-three.
I tried not to notice him, for I am afraid of bikers this size.
When he came to the bar, I actually began to rise.
Don’t...

About that gator recommended by a New Orleans waiterSaid a handsome New Orleans waiter,
"Sir, can I recommend some freshly caught gator?"
I said, "Are you for real?
Didn’t you hear about that poor woman Lucille?"
"But Sir, what if I can assure you ~ this ain't the gator that ate her?"...

Academic Issues At the Holiday TableOne has a rallying spear
Other has a chomp to fear
But on the weekend to give gratitude
A Seminole and Gator won’t be showing any attitude
Cancelled is their rivalry match
Neither one will be the dinner catch
Gator meat
Sautéed and sweet
Will...
