Roses are yellow, <br />Belladonna is red <br />Prickly thorns 'n poison, <br />Can make me real dead <br /> <br />Kitties are scratchy, <br />Bite when they want <br />Bees when angry, <br />sharp stingers do flaunt <br /> <br />Snakes like to wiggle, <br />Make my skin crawl, <br />Their rattling tails, <br />Drive me right up a wall <br /> <br />Gator's a-smilin with, <br />Jagged-toothed jaws, <br />Lions and tigers, <br />with long pointy claws <br /> <br />Rhino a-chargin, <br />With long curving horn <br />I scamp up a tree, <br />Sit there forlorn <br /> <br />Yet happy I'm small and <br />Don't take up much space, <br />Cuz this world is a spooky, <br />And dangerous place! <br /> <br />ROTMS<br /><br />Ray Lucero<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-dangerous-place-for-children/
