A/N: This is probably the most ridiculous poem I have ever made. Oh well. Made for the: Different Genre Competition! (I tried, and therefore no-one should criticise me - Daniel Radcliffe).

Summary: A short poem on Harry Potter.


Once upon a time, in a cupboard far away

There lived a boy

Whose relatives always said nay

And so the boy played with his toy

It was a soldier with a gun

Which brought him much joy

Like the shining of the sun

Once upon a time, in a cupboard far away

There lived a boy

Who was told something on his birthday

"You're not a boy, you're a wizard!" which brought him much joy

But, he was also told on the same day

That everything he knew was a lie, which seemed to annoy

The very relatives who always said nay

Once upon a time, in a Wizarding place far away

There lived a boy

Who was extraordinary in his own way

Which filled him with both sadness and joy

A Wizarding boy who barely made an essay

But nevertheless started to enjoy

The world in which he was no castaway

But to that boy in a Wizarding world far away

Was made a prophecy

Which he had to follow and obey

A prophecy, which was costly

To one person it was a safe way

To another it was something akin to agony

As one life he held dear was taken away

Once upon a time in a Wizarding world far away

The boy was no boy, but a man

A man who had learned all about disarray

And set work to make a plan

To make the rules his to obey

To not be the superman

And that was how the boy, turned man, found his way


A/N: The end!
