I came out of the bar And There they were Creeping In the shadows At the edge Of the parking lot First There was one Then Two Then Three Then Four Their masks Eternally in place They looked at me With beady eyes I wondered What I might have to give them... They certainly weren't impressed With my leftover dinner of Mega-Spaghetti At length I tossed them some crackers And they scrambled to get them And made their escape I idly thought of capturing one of them Then thought better of it It could have ended badly One never knows How they'll react When they're cornered Still It's always cool Getting to feed A pack of raccoons

Too adorable, Ken!! I love raccoons, too, but as Karla said, our aunt Barbara had to get rabies shots (OW!) after the raccoon she was feeding bit her. NOT good, but I am glad to say that our aunt is doing a LOT better and learned her lesson well!! (I would too if that happened to ME! YIKES!! 13 shots right in the belly...OWWWWW!!) I love this write; very well done! (((HUGS))) and love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :D
