Second upload in the Sisters Grimm category! And it's another free-verse poem, too!

This is for SweetShireen's birthday! I've just come across her stories and she's just come across mine. She's an amazing poet and author, so check her out if you ahven't already! Happy birthday (early, late, or on time!), girl!

And very happy birthday to my amazing mum as well! I love you!

Hope you enjoy this Henry-centric poem!
