Fairy Tale | Teresa Poast

Hansel and Gretel

The kid with the crumbs on his face
Yelled "Batter up!" and threw;
His sister hit as hard as she could
And in an instant they knew.

It had hit Old Lady Jenkins's house
And the children were filled with dread
Old Lady Jenkins was on her porch
And she screamed "You kids are dead!"

They were very sorry but it wasn't enough
They were in an unfortunate mess
But they decided that from then on
They'd avoid Lady Jenkins's address.
