Lucie Spoils Some Fun
By Larry Chadwick

Came staggering out of the woods one day,
It wasn’t because I really knew how to play.
Could hardly believe that I had survived,
I just knew I was glad to still be alive.

You wouldn’t believe what I’d been through,
But I have to confess what it was I had to do.
Strolling through the woods without one care,
Minding my own business when up popped a bear.

As you can imagine I took off running for my life,
Somewhere along the trail I dropped my knife.
But the growl of that bear kept my heart in fear,
All I wanted was to just get far away from there.

With my pellet pistol in my hand I fired a shot,
I didn’t even look back to see what I got.
Stuck the gun over my shoulder and shot the thing,
Hoping, of course, that the bear would feel a sting.

So as I ran I shot the pistol again and again,
In the hopes the bear would finally give in.
I was only ten what did you expect me to do,
Kept it up ‘til all my pellets I had gone through.

So I must confess it was then that I fell on my knees,
And with my eyes toward heaven I made my pleas.
I heard the voice of the bear I recognized so plain,
I realized it was Lucie and she had gone insane.

I’m sorry for all of the harm I had innocently done,
My original intent was to go to the woods for fun.
How was I to know what Lucie planned for me,
She’s just a great big bully, I’m sure you agree.

Peaches,
Lucie is a survivor and a sweetie, I'm sure she'll figure something out.

LOL Lucie will definitely have another treat for you after this. She's just lying low, or writing for Marge?
There is so much going on in here, challenges all over the place! I can't keep up anymore.

Midnitesun,
Well, I'm sure it's not your age. It must be those low temps. If you read Lucie's Passion I think you'll find where she has been!
