There Once Was A Girl

There once was a girl,
no older than three.
Who ran up a wall,
and into a tree.

When she ran into the tree,
She developed amenesia.
Doctors ran her to the hospital,
And gave her anesthesia.

When she awoke to her dismay,
Her family sent a message to convey.

They said "Dear Sweetie, please come home!"
The little girl said, with great shock,
"No, I will not come home, until I find the gnome!"

When the little girl was released,
She stepped into the sunlight.
Standing dumfounded was a priest.
He exclaimed to the little girl,

"Run little girl! The gnome is near!"

The little girl walked pass the priest,
And into the next year.
She was another year older,
But six feet under.
And in her hands rested...
a little gnome folder.


Author notes

Okay, yes my friends, this is not what I usually write. I usually write something dark, spooky, scary, angry etc. I think this is hillarious because 1) i can't write happy without a sadisitic twist and 2) i'm not used to writing anything happy or cheerful. Enjoy and give me honest comments.

    Very good

    Im glad you did something different from what you normally do. I like it, it had a good twist. You worked at the rhyming scheme good, i just feel that it could be better. Im no expert though, But overall its very good.
