Nessie

 

Loch Ness Monsters live

About a mile deep

And every now and then

To the surface one will creep

 

He’ll come up for a nosy,

For a little look around

Should he espy a human

He will surely go to ground

 

He will dive way down

Into that murky lake

Where he’ll hide away

His secret he will take

 

The Beastie shuns attention

He avoids the public glare

Or is he an invention

Was he ever really there?

I’ll never forget…. in

I'll never forget.... in my sophomore high school class I gave a presentation on the Loch Ness Monster... no one knew about it 'cept me.... shows you I was always weird... Much enjoyed Nessie.... nessie the behemoth on a moonstruck lake doth pine for others of his kind... such a sad wail from a serpent's tale Hug. ~A "Speech is blasphemy. Silence a lie. Above speech and silence is a way out." I-tuan.

Thought 'Nessie was a girl monster? I don't know what the fuss is all about - she probably is an herbivore anyway...
