Anyway, we had parked near a large drainage ditch in which an alligator was 'resting'. It was about 6 feet long. I waved a broken tree branch in front of its face. (cont.)

This is an amusing poem. But I can imagine Bri's pain(if the story is true) when stung by a swarm of bees and also the pain he had to endure to pick out those dead bees from the sandwich.

I give 5 stars for poem plus 5 ***** stars for Poet's Notes. I've also clicked on the 'favorites' heart. I suspect it was a PB&J(elly) sandwich. (cont.)

Dear Kim, You would make a fantastic reporter for any newspaper. DO 'THEY' STILL publish newspapers (on news paper) ? ? ? ? A time or two I filled in for a brother delivering 'papers'. ;)
