Gingham and Grit

Cute but with mindful effort

By Seashell Harpspring Published about a month ago • 1 min read

Seesaw Mary Daw

Two people swing the saw

Back and fourth a set pace

Never gaining a raise for pay

Miss Muppet on a tuffet high

Saw a spider, cursed it to die

Was actually an owl butterfly

She will pay more attention next time

Tisket tasket a note fell from Molly's basket

Ended up with the boy for she'd stop traffic

Her dolly Polly led her to believe was a mistake, drastic

Polly intentionally gave the paper to start a love match met.

Dorothy finds herself with no way home

She makes her way to a green throne

The wizards only uses inventions to atone

For not possessing magic of his own

Red Riding hood meet a witch in the woods

She has the same colors on, but with horns on the hood

She will grant a wish for good

The wolf shall be axed by a man who chops what he should

Goldilocks to the adult bears was ungrateful

They positioned her as hateful

To little bear she was a delightful, her appearance fateful

They enjoyed having fun, eating food that was actually tasteful
