Oh, The Poor Gingerbread Man
No one could catch him, one can?
Oh, the poor gingerbread man
He ran till he ran away
No one could catch him, one can?
*****
Then there came a baker man
Who came up with a good way
Oh, the poor gingerbread man
*****
Then they set up the bright plan
They put out some sweets one day
No one can catch him, one can?
*****
Of sweets he was a good fan
The cookie had come to play
Oh, the poor gingerbread man
*****
He ran as fast as he can
Right into the cold endplay
No one can catch him, one can?
*****
There was no way to outplan
In the frozen, he must stay
Oh, the poor gingerbread man
No one can catch him, one can.

I agree with Caroline. That was a lot of fun. Nicely done.
This was fun! A narrative villanelle. Really imaginative. ❤️
