My Scary Encounter With a Crocodile
By Ryan McKevitt
Today I saw a crocodile,
It sat and stared at me.
I didn’t run, I stood dead still,
He was thinking I was his tea.
I saw his big, scary mouth,
I think he grinned at me.
The sweat is pouring down my forehead.
I am so scared, I need to pee.
I take a deep breath, I have been brave before.
In my dreams, I have wrestled monsters to the floor.
I need to stand tall and not show my fear,
Even though the crocodile is near.
I move closer, I am curious to see,
This massive beast, who is looking at me.
He flips his tail, he shows his teeth,
I want to run, but can’t move my feet.
As the crocodile prepared to eat me,
He snapped, he snarled, he blew.
I just stood brave, and tapped the glass,
Luckily for me, this crocodile was in the zoo.
