A/N - just a short poem (not freeverse) I wrote for the Weasley's Wizard Wheezes Competition - Headless Hats. Enjoy, and please review!

It's a great thing, to be a Weasley,

You'd think that it would be so easy –

Not for Lucy Weasley.

All named after a famous dead hero,

Never have problems with your ego –

Not for Lucy Weasley.

Press following you everywhere,

Questioning you as though they care –

Not for Lucy Weasley.

Always placed in Gryffindor,

Always eager to explore –

Not for Lucy Weasley.

Never placed in Hufflepuff,

Their courage levels aren't enough –

Not for Lucy Weasley.

You don't have brown hair, always red,

You have a burning desire to meet Uncle Fred –

Not for Lucy Weasley.

People are always in awe of you,

And what they say shows that they adore you –

Not for Lucy Weasley.

As a Weasley child you never stand still,

In shops, you're given free Sugar Quills –

Not for Lucy Weasley.

No Weasley is ever overlooked,

For you all, Molly copied out her old cookbook –

Not for Lucy Weasley.

It's a great thing, to be a Weasley,

You'd think that it would be so easy –

Not for Lucy Weasley.

Because Lucy Weasley will always be,

Just another Weasley.
