She had golden blonde hair,

walked into a forest

and found a house

 

There were three

bowls of porridge;

cold, hot, and right

 

There she ate them up,

and fell tired on

chairs of three

 

One was too big,

the other one too,

the last was just right

 

There she broke

the chair in pieces

and walked up

 

There were three

sets of bedding;

Hard, soft, and right

 

She slept in the bed

until the family came home

to see their items touched

 

There someone ate

the porridge and finished

Baby’s bowl right

 

There someone sat

in their chairs and broke

Baby’s chair right

 

There someone slept

in their beds and still

in Baby’s bed right

 

There with the golden blonde hair,

she woke up to find

three bears beside her

 

Filled with fright,

she screamed and ran

out towards the window

 

She fell and kept running

away into the forest

never to see the bears again.

 

Wait…let’s go back

to when she awoke

to see the bears

 

There she screamed and ran

but the Papa and Mama bears

ran after her and caught

 

A lock of hair ripped out,

and the bears toppled over

to see the girl had run

 

There she had cuts and marks

from the teeth and claws

and into the dark forest,

 

She never saw the bears again.
