Beware

Traveling through the forest
Hunting wild animals
Wolves, Lions and bears.
Bending tree limbs
Tripping on pine cones,
Being impressed by my bravery.

I hear a growling above me
Looking around
I see him, a mountain lion
Ready to pounce.
Clutching my rifle,
I take off running
squashing everything in my path.
Lucky for the lion.
He got away.

Walking along
Thinking I was home free,
I stepped right into a hornets nest.
My body was swollen.
My ego drained.
The possibility of a hornets nest
hadn't occured to me..
