The alligator lies in the sun
with deep brown eyes
relaxing on the golf course
watching the golf balls fly by
One golfer hits a ball
a little too close
totally unaware
of an alligator’s boast
He goes to retrieve the ball
the alligator’s head in the air
thinking he can hit the alligator
with a snare
The alligator sees the golfer
swishes his tail up high
hitting the lost ball
in the air going wide
The golf ball flies through the air
for a total hole in one
The alligator rests his head
again in the sun
