Green Hands

In the square of town there is a wall
Red with brick
No one knows what's over this wall
Because no one really cares

But one day something strange happened
Two hands appeared
No one payed attention
Because no one really cared

Then one day someone took notice
Jeremy Smith
He saw those hands and wondered
He was the one person who cared

So Jeremy climbed over that wall
Red with brick
Those were as green as emeralds
Bright as jewels

Jeremy soon discovered what was over that wall
Whose hands they were
A sight so shocking that he trembled
So surprising that it belonged in the circus

Those hands belonged to a leafy monster
Green like his hands
The monster was made of ivy
Leaves green as emeralds

Jeremy jumped down and ran down the street
Running fast to tell everyone
He told his mom, dad, the police

He told everyone

When he gathered everyone to the wall...
They were surprised
The hands were gone
Both them and the monster

Everyone,disappointed left
Jeremy stood there gazing into space
Where had it gone?
Where could it go?

Now the hands were gone
It's just a wall again
All because no one payed attention
No one cared
