NY sunset
I spied a snake, DNA once said
Half way up a tree, it's body wed.
And much to my startled surprise
This climbing tree snake's head did rise.
More shocking still still, it said with a grin,
'Pretty good climber, and me with no limbs.
Maybe the snake didn't really talk
Perhaps it was the length of that day's walk.
But if you doubt my tale or if it's true,
Walk the rest of this Trail - it could happen to you!
Then from 'round a corner a bear did prance
from Blueberry to Huckleberry and back it danced.
It saw me and quick as a wink
He raised furry paws and his Nikon blinked.
Then dashed away while I fumbled for mine
Singing Jimmy Buffett tunes from '79.
