OCTPOWRIMO 2026-Number 11-Nature Watching:

"Wait, settle down, they won't appear!"

A group of children and a teacher in fear
Of missing out on the travelling deer
Not for the kids, but for herself to see
Antlers in a headlock, fighting to be

"The does are already gathered by the tree!"

The nature reserve has many obvious signs
'Don't feed the bears' or along those lines
Each one raised with text that shines

"Wait, listen now, there's a rustling bush!'

The children jump to the front in a rush
Almost knocking the teacher out with a push
Piling up to see the natural action before her
Second fiddle, next generation's chauffeur

"Their tails, so fluffy, I could pet them forever!"

The does are alert, they see the class there
Startled and still, they employ a death stare
The children are scared, the does don't care

"BACK, CHILDREN, THE BUCKS HAVE COME!"

A clumsy one, falling behind his chum!
Seven years young, beloved to some!
Thundering hooves approach the class!
Nothing can cause the anger to pass!

"MISS, PLEASE, IT HURTS...the grass..."

His ankle visibly twisted out of place
His teacher quickly picking up the pace
His body shielded by a smiling face

"Let your fears come to a halt"

The fence did nothing to stop their assault
The teacher was blamed, yet not at fault
The rules state that someone must pay
To make sure the kids play another day.
