In my love for you my sweet, not a worry comes to mind
Where each seed that has been planted there are flowers now to find
Wading through the grain fields is a walk down lovers lane
Even though I broke my leg, still there is no pain

Trodding on to Grandma's house with horn-o’-plenty's yield,
my crutch wedged 'tween the cobblestones, fracturing Achilles heel
Then I came upon a pig's retreat built of straw n’ sticks n’ mortar,
when suddenly a wolf appeared, asking for Grandmother

"Aren't you just a bit confused", I asked the feral wanderer
"Grandma's house is three miles back, if you’re looking for food to plunder"
"‘Tis food indeed I seek little lass”!...the furry foe did say
“Just a peek inside your basket and you’ll soon be on your way”!

So I set the tricky timer and stepped back a pace or two,
the Wolf popped open the basket and... “Ka-BOOM!!
...left nothing but his shoes!
