Poked In The Eye

Nicholas Lizer 2006 (Pueblo Colorado)



Calm summer day in the mountains
Birds chirping  not a cloud in the sky
Playing in the forest behind my camping spot
Climbing fallen logs, trees and rocks
Fell off a log got poked in the eye

About this poem

This poem is about how I once poked myself in the eye on a camping trip. The moral of the story is that horse play always has a risk of injury and other conciquences.
