It wasn’t going to be a typical day

Something in the water told me right away

Whole lot of teeth for just one smile

Might be worse that a crocodile

Thinking to myself, I better splash this away

A quick turn and another vivid display

Teeth flashing and I knew right to say

May now wasn’t the time to splash it away

Maybe right now it was best to quietly pray

I had no desire to make this feeling stay

I couldn’t help but sense the powerful danger

Visited on me by the coming of this stranger

Sometimes the scariest of times seem quite benign

At least that’s how it is in this life of mine
