My Pet Tiger!
“Got a Tiger For My Birthday!”
“That Can’t Be Safe!” Grampa Did Say!
I Said, “No One’s Been Eaten Yet!”
“‘Sides, My Tiger’s a Gentle Pet!”
“But Sweetheart,” Grampa Did Protest,
“A Tiger Swiftly Could Digest
“The Sweetest Red~Heads God Has Made!”
“Chillax Grampa! I’m Not Afraid!”
Grampa Sputtered, Muttered, Stuttered!
“Doors Are Locked … Windows Are Shuttered!”
“I’m Pretty Sure He Won’t Get Out!”
“But YOU"RE In There!” Grampa Did Shout!
We’re Fifteen Hundred Miles Apart!
But I Clearly Heard Grampa’s Heart!
Thought Grampa’s Brain Just Might Explode!
Yet Fooling Him Never Gets Old!
Grampa’s Breathing’s Nearly Normal!
Some Day He’ll Meet My Newest Pal!
My Slight Fib Wasn’t All That Big!
Tiger’s My Birthday Guinea Pig!
Your Grampa Sure Loves Y’All!
Love~Grampa (Mar. 17, 2018)
