I think I saw death
Rummaging around in my garden last night.
As He slithered by,
He extended his hand.
Wanting neither to encourage
Nor annoy,
I eschewed the shake
And high fived instead.
On his way out,
I think I heard him sarcastically say
“See you later”!
Or was I dreaming?
Next time you'll have to give him the ol' "Down low, too slow!!"
