Off the marked trail
Grand-daughter chose to peruse
Running with the Roos
Not recommended by Zoos
Gave Grandma a fright
To see her run with delight
Trying to catch the Hoppers
But G-ma was able to stop her
Caught her before they bopped her
Choka
At the Zoo with all 4 of my grand-kids.
There is an area you can walk on a path near the kangaroos. Signs say “Please Keep On Path”. Youngest grand-daughter age 2 breaks loose of my hand and takes off running to try to catch a kangaroo! Thankfully I caught her before the Roo did!
Prompt: write a poem re-telling a family anecdote that has stuck with you over time
