You could tell by the look on her face
It was something she’d never embrace

Mama promised, if she got it right
A sweet surprise, would be her delight

Dressed up, in white lace and pink flowers
She tried to do it, for hours and hours

Lying down in the grass, quite exhausted
This whole curtsy deal had her daunted

Angered, indeed, by her now dirty knees
She’d rather lie there, than forever be taunted

Gathered together

Free to sway, with the spring breeze

In a verdant home

A castle stands, on a mountain high

Its turrets, reaching for the sky

Towers, decorating its building, where

The strong and valiant, fought despair

Coated in dusted powder, fine

Winter, cloaks a different time

Shrouded, by the clouds, so gray

A mighty warrior, here, did stay

To guard the lands, he knew, profound

Kept hidden, by the arbored ground

But days have passed, its empty now

Quietly standing, remembering how

Its stature, grand, for centuries, still

Shall always remain, atop this hill

Hickory and Dickory went to the doc
To find out why Hickory was gaining

Only to discover, a baby on the way
Which started ole Dickory complaining

He never had kiddies in mind, for his age
She, on the other hand, was glowing

Wondering why she had that look on her face
He stood there, confused and unknowing

Hickory went about her days, smiling
Until it was time for the baby to arrive

Dickory was one nervous Nelly
And he, the nurses would have to revive

When at last, the child was born
It was love, at first sight, with a shock!

The baby looked nothing like Dickory
But he sure as hell looked like the doc!
