Meeting a Bear in the Woods
We, four teachers and ten children,
rambled through Ponderosa Pines.
We had put a stuffed bear
beside a tree
and had taken off the red
bow collar
so he’d become more
intimidating.
When they spotted the
bear,
we told them to make a lot
of noise
so it would hear and get
scared.
They already had a flair
for being loud.
They shouted, blew their
whistles,
and raised their arms to
look bigger.
A teacher, who was hiding
behind the tree,
grabbed the bear and ran
off.
We praised the kids for scaring
off the bear.
