Mikey and The Strangers By Paul Wilson Abandoned when he was just three days old How will he survive this winter so cold Hoping his mother would come back real soon All alone he waits…under the full moon Searching for his mother as days go by She never comes back…and he wonders why Then one day while lying in the warm sun Something grabbed him…he had no time too run Scared and frightened…he tried to get away He cried and cried for the rest of the day Splash…he hit the water it felt so good Refuge he found under a piece of wood Where was this strange place he found himself in Wishing his mother would come back again The days went by and he began to grow Lonely and still missing his mother so The strangers always brought food too eat Once a week they would give him a real treat He was living a life of luxury Thanks he said to the strangers that found me Then the strangers gave him a name one day Mikey…the turtle sure sounded okay Shortly after this… nothing was the same With him strangers sometime would play a game They’d put him in the floor… setting him free he would chase them as happy as could be We played for hours everybody knows Me chasing them… trying to bite their toes Mikey is my name I’m big, mean and bad Don’t mess with me, I’mking of this lilly pad Since the day I let the stranger catch me I never really wanted to be free Inspired by my two grandsons and a turtle I may develope this story line into a childrens book. Any advise would be appreciated. [This message has been edited by Paul Wilson (08-14-2003 12:16 AM).] |
