The Mighty Crocodile

The Mighty Crocodile

A Poem by GreenSkeleton16
"

I wrote this for school in my Theater Arts Class and had to preform it... :)

"
I am the mighty Sarah; I bring great fear to all.
People even look up to me, but that's because I'm tall.
Yes I am the brave one; nothing makes me shake,
until I saw this crocodile swimming in the lake.

Fear the mighty crocodile, for it brings fear to me.
Run away from the great big crocodile, it's as dangerous as can be.

I was determined to keep my title, determined to be strong.
I walked up to that crocodile, but something did go wrong.
His teeth were long and sharp, and his breath smelt like poop!
It was then I knew his plan was to turn me into soup.
I backed away real slowly; I said I meant no harm.
But then that big old crocodile had just ripped off my arm!

I can’t believe he did that! Hey, that's my arm, you suck!
I felt my anger approaching, and now he's out of luck.
I punched that stupid crocodile; yeah I punched him on his head.
But then that sly old crocodile ate me, now I’m dead.

That was in my past, and yet you see me now.
I guess I am quite different, and now you will see how.
Even though I am dead, it seems as if I'm not.
I live each day the same, showing the goodness I was taught.

I work at a pet store. Hey don’t laugh, it pays!
I could make more money than you, if I worked for days and days.
Sadly I can’t work very much, since someone ate my arm.
I’m nice to all the animals, so I will be safe from harm.

Fear the mighty crocodile, for it brings fear to me.
Run away from the great big crocodile, it's as dangerous as can be.

Now that I have thought about it, being scared ain't so bad.
I used to sit at home all night, and I wasn't even sad.
Besides I am only scared of one thing, nothing else makes me cry.
Until I saw this crazy woman, who I found out was a guy!

What the...Your a man?
"you need to stay away from me",
I shouted as I ran

Now I’m scared of two things,
but still its pretty nice.
Be sure to read this thoroughly,
and take all my advice.

This is very lovely. The rhyming scheme and rhythm were great. It was interesting to see how it worked out. It seems something is working behind what I read... Will have to ponder it.
