In the large tree

Swinging precariously

Dangling so far

So far from safety

A cradle so small

Not cared for all

Dangling so Far

So far from all

The cold winds of boreas

Blowing and sweeping across

And fate shall tell soon,

The cradle will not be is, but was

Inside that doomed, cursed cradle

Is the youngest soul

Doomed and cursed to be expelled

Before the Church bells toll

Pluto, the death master

Blowing the cradle faster

Rocking and Rocking

Creating a Disaster

Nothing can stop it

Not even one bit

Rocking and Rocking

One can only watch and sit

On the knife’s edge, it swings

So close to falling down

Almost there, almost there

The expected is happening

Down and down it goes

Faster and faster it floats

Till that very moment

Where victory is the foe’s

This Little Piggy-

In the market, a pig would roam.

Roamed it would, all alone.

In its home, another pig would ponder,

All alone it’s world of wonder.

Another pig would love a feast

So he settled on some scrumptious beef.

Smiling and laughing, all the pigs would sit

But one little pig threw a fit.

This pig would scream and shout,

It would not stop with its pout.

The other pigs would say

“Please go away!”

But the little pig refused,

Making the others feel confused.

He started to get more aggressive,

His behavior became excessive.

The other pigs got sick of what was happening,

So they grabbed the little pig by the thighs

And they held him high.

But the little pig fought back, and pushed his brother,

Off he went, into the fire.

Everyone shrieked, except for the little one.

Who stared at what he had done.

The others didn’t wait, they picked up the phone,

While thinking of how they should’ve known.

“Please! I didn’t mean to!” said the little pig,

“No. What you did will never be fine”.

The fire burned in the little pig’s eyes.

He ran to the shed and came out with a hatchet.

Sliced he did, all his brothers.

He then sat quietly, without a racket.

Soon they came, it was the cops.

But the pig already thought his way to the top.

“Good evening, little pig.”

“Hello, I have tea, would you like a swig?”

“And I like your weapon, is it a gun?”

Before long, the cops too were gone.
