Overturned Wagon! (A Funny Story) Poem by Edwin Drood

Pappu, Santa's son, accidentally overturned his wagon load of corn. The farmer who lived nearby heard the noise.

'Hey Pappu! ! ' the farmer yelled. 'Forget your troubles. Come in with us. Then I'll help you get the wagon up.'

'That's mighty nice of you, ' Pappu answered, 'but I don't think my father would like me to.'

'Aw, come on, ' the farmer insisted.

'Well okay, ' he finally agreed, and added, 'But my father won't like it.'

After a hearty lunch, Pappu thanked his host. 'I feel a lot better now, but I know dad is going to be real upset.'

'Don't be foolish! ' the farmer said with a smile. 'By the way, where is he? '

'Under the wagon.'
