Little Boy

There once was a boy who lived in a house,

Most days he sat around and played with his mouse,

He had long blonde hair that was ever so shaggy,

And a couple of siblings named Muppet and Maggie. 

Now these siblings were one, one of a kind,

They shared their toys and got along just fine.

But one day ago, something scary seemed to happen,

The little boy saw something, something you couldn’t imagine. 

It made the little boy cry and scream for his mommy,

But no one was there to hold his hand or rub his tummy,

His parents had left and gone far far away,

They sent him a letter saying they were going to stay. 

He wandered around town asking for money,

Till a nice stranger gave him some honey.

So he went to his siblings to show them what he got,

He thought they would be happy but instead they fought. 

The little boy ran and cried to himself,

He had done everything he could to try and keep their house.

Now the story comes to a close,

The little boy left and did everything he chose,

He grew into a man, so big and so tall,

He got everything he wanted,

He had it all.
