TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE FULL MOON
Hi guys, I got this idea and figured I would try to make something out of it. This takes place in Harry's third year, when Sirius has escaped from Azkaban, and no one knows he's innocent yet. He hides out in the Shrieking Shack and I wondered what he did on the first full moon of the year? He probably knew Remus was teaching there, but didn't know about the Wolfsbane, so I expect he figured he would see his old friend and try to talk things out, but things didn't go as he hoped.
'Twas the night before full moon
And all through the Shack
Not a creature was stirring
But Sirius Black
The escaped convict traveled
To prove he was framed
For no one believed
He was nice as he claimed
He sat on the bedside
With memories of past
The excursions, adventures
From first to the last
The moon hung in the sky
Like a large, milky ball
But no werewolves showed
So he gave a great call
"Oh Moooonnyyy"
He howled like a wounded young pup
"I didn't betray them
I was set up!"
No reply came
Human or not
So Padfoot sat down
Absorbed in his thoughts
There was something Sirius
Could not comprehend
The full moon was out
So why wasn't his friend?
He was forced to conclude
That his old friend had guessed
That he was a murderer
Like all of the rest
And with that happy thought
And his deadly mishap
The tired old dog
Lay down for a nap.
So, whaddya think? His "deadly mishap" was making Peter Secret-Keeper.
