I was born really homely , my mom was ugly too,
everyone said I looked like a back end of a mule,
people always laughed and called me a joke,
each day I was pushed into my locker at my school.
As soon as school was over I ran away from home,
I decided deep in the woods is where I would dwell,
I found a cave and made it my new home,
before long it turned into a living hell.
Deep inside the cave was a family of little gnomes,
they were nasty and even uglier then me,
one night as I was sleeping they tied me up,
these ugly gnomes had made a prisoner out of me.
The gnomes thought I was their God of Ugliness,
sent to find them and take them all back home,
they too had run away because they were teased,
where they once lived , nobody liked the ugly gnomes.
Well I told the ugly gnomes my sad life story,
they listened and decided they would set me free,
the ugly gnomes and I live in the cave as a family,
it's wonderful to have a family uglier then me.

This was pretty funny. You should get someone to illustrate it. Put it to music.
I think the kid and the gnomes should rise up. Or at least steal food from people's gardens. -
Thank you Colleen for taking the time to read and comment on my poem I appreciate it. Take care, Sandy

Aww, vanity, just so great! (Well, it's really not the person's fault that they got teased for being ugly, is it?) Kind of humorous, storyish, moralish poem about a hermit that had gonmes in it. Haha, fantastic.

I didn't know if I wanted him happy or to let the gnomes put him out of his misery. I decided to let him live. It was his lucky day

This is such a sad poem which I liked a lot- I loved the freedom within the last part, as long as you're the best it doesn't matter what other people are like is the impression I got. Great write, keep up the good work
