The alligator sits on the bank
moxie all around
big beady eyes and open mouth
a warning to all who surround
He slips into the water
to cool off and rest this day
beady eyes open
silently waiting for prey
The morning sun
shining so bright
a duck comes close
the alligator moves to bite
All of the sudden
there is such a clatter
a group of geese land
causing the water to smatter
The duck swims away
the alligator loses his prey
there is much noise
as the alligator moves away
Back on the bank
enjoying the sun
watching the geese dreaming
while the duck continues to run
