Mary Had A Little Lamb... Poem by Shaun Cronick

Mary Had A Little Lamb...

Rating: 5.0


Mary had a little lamb,
Its fleece was white as snow.
And everywhere that Mary went,
The lamb was sure to go...

It followed her to the abattoir,
Where Mary tirelessly does work.
Her lamb looked nervously around,
As Mary began to sharply smirk.

Mary had a little lamb,
Washed down with a fine Bordeaux.
Had just enough left over,
To make a little lamb risotto.

Mary had a secret stalker,
Who watched her night and day.
But Mary knew of his presence,
And laid plans to do him away....

Wickedly humorous poem Shaun, certainly not one to share with the kids! It's certainly not a fluffy, but a frightening five from me.

This little poem is very humorous, even if the first stanza is borrowed (as it was intended to be!) .
