the death of LAKE bear
Corpulent and shunned was this humble bear,
So wide and so stout that everyone stared.
And all she ever wanted was to boat across the lake,
But she refused herself the pleasure because of her weight.
She felt that if she tried the boat would surely sink,
And what a horrifying thought for a she-bear to think.
So she decided to waddle her way around the vast edge.
“I’ll walk daily and lose weight,” she silently pledged.
But her body proved weaker than the strength of her vow.
It only took three steps to summon the sweat from her brow.
But still she pushed onward, she huffed and she gasped,
Until an entire mile behind her had passed.
Feeling triumphant and giddy, the she-bear attempted to skip,
But her meaty feet were so heavy they caused her to trip.
When this bear landed, the very earth she did shake,
And on a rock fat as her, her head she did break.
