Shark Infested Pool!!!

Shark infested Pool!!!!
“SPLASH!”I dove in my pool.
The water up against my skin was pretty cool.
It is midnight,
The whole moon in sight.


I started to swim.
Backstroke, Butterfly…
My eyes saw something that is dim.
It didn’t seem shy.


It is big 2 feet, 3 feet maybe 5.
Hopefully I can stay alive.
The monstrous scary shape was circling by my feet.
Is this a creep?


“It’s a SHARK!”
My body is still as a car in park.
I was in sheer fright.
“Will it bite?”


Maybe I should get out.
And try to go about.
I can’t move.
I’ll shrivel up like a prune.


The shark came at me.
I closed my eyes so i can’t see.
“HI!” said the shark.
I replied, “Are you from Noah’s Ark?”


“I’m hungry for some food.”
“Wanna hear a joke.” I said as a scared little dude.
“It’s hard to make a shark laugh!”, The shark said in pride.
“This joke makes people laugh nation-wide”

 

 

 


I responded back with the joke, “There was a shark attack, the shark bit off someone’s whole left side of their body.”
“But he’s all right.”
The shark was laughing like it was the best choke during twilight.


The shark was about to choke.
I decide to hit the backstroke.
Lifting my knee out of the pool one by one.
As I peered over my shoulder, the shark drowned like a M1 machine gun.


I inhaled fresh air.
If you see a shark make sure you have a joke to spare.
I feel bad that I made the shark drown.
But at least he didn’t with a frown.
