Jungle Jim

A Story by Gomer LePoet
"

It's wild out there

"

Jungle Jim


I step quietly through the foliage

each step one foot in front of the other

thorny bushes reaching out to grab me

large webs with entrapped insects

being very careful watching intently

poisonous snakes are abound

an occasional grunt from gators

warning not to come any closer

they guard their young viciously

my exploring buddy Jim warning me

about the wild boar seen lately

large prehistoric looking birds swooping

and making screeching sounds

finally I hear I got it I got it

the treasure we had been seeking

now to retrieve it and make our way

our way back out of this jungle

look out for the huge spider I yell

and Jim ducks just in time

we finally see the clearing ahead

whew! Wasn't sure we would get back

dam Jim next time be more careful

next time hit your 7 iron instead

now what did you get on that hole?
