Something just got into my van It is BIG and it is green Eyes as big as my hand Oh man, is it looking mean There it went under the seat I'm not getting in there, no not me Gosh it is long, maybe 10 feet How it got in there is hard to see Oh no, it is down there whipping its tail Knocking over everything under the seat If I got in there my life would be in peril Maybe I don't need to go for at least a week OK, I'm bigger than it is I have to get him to come out Oh, I just saw his beady eyes Get it out? Well now I have a doubt Call an expert to handle this job Come prepared, don't want anyone hurt I looked on and tried to swallow a sob Exterminater it said on the back of his shirt Well after a time he found a salamander Tried to make me think it was he Could be its baby not him for sure Some day the big one will jump out at me I want this to be on the record I case some day I don't return That the huge green thing isn't captured He's in my van without a concern |

Good incentive to start a walking program, don't you think? Thanks for making me smile.To love another person is to see the face of God. |

A nice sense of mystery: a story with a twist. Right up to the end, I would have sworn it to be a garden hose. I've never cared for "green" surprises regardless of form. "I am not now that which I have been." |

Julian Lester, I could live with a garden hose, but not sure about this. It gets more funny as time goes by. And welcome to Passions! ME |

I thought sure it was a snake. A salamander of course, is bad enough! Cute poem. Betty Lou Hebert |

Butterflies, my kid, now don't you feel just a little bit sorry for me? Oh, well, with nothing to eat in there, it should die . Oh, no, think of the smell! I guess I can't win. Love and hugs, Mom |
