Ashley Hawthorne
Knitted Death
There once was an old lady
By the name of Ms. Sadie,
who had a fluffy dog named Moe.
She knit him a sweater,
so he would look better,
to the people wherever they go.
Well one day Ms. Sadie,
with the temperature at eighty,
was strutting Moe to and fro.
But was given quite the surprise,
when she came to realize.
That the heat of the sweater,
had done none the better,
and done in poor little Moe.
So with eyes full of tears
She buried her dear
with the sweater that she had loved so.
But not long after,
She got a dog named Mafter,
with fur as white as snow.
So she made him a sweater,
In eighty degree weather,
So he would look better,
as he strutted to and fro.
…And around and around we go.
