Mary had a little lamb
that had a sooty foot,
and everywhere that Mary went,
his sooty foot he put.

Oh no! I bet Mary got quite sick of cleaning up after all that soot. However, if she should ever get lost in the forest, she wont be needing any breadcrumbs will she?

Congrats on the silver!
Adorable. All the best in the contest with it

Short, sweet, and to the point. I see that Mary's lamb was the bad guy here. Interesting twist I must say, for I had always pictured Mary blaming the lamb for her troubles. Very interesting tale, written in a very interesting way. Well done.

Cute one.
This is a very cute one and one that we will remember. I often rewrite nursery rhymes. I did one on Humpty Dumpty. Haha.
