The Night the Dark Lord Vanished
Lily sat in a rocking chair
Singing a lullaby
Trying to get little Harry Potter
To stop his obnoxious cries
James sat reading the Daily Prophet
His glasses on his nose
On and on and on he read
Untill his eyes had completely closed
The paper dropped out of his hands
And softly hit the floor
The house was silent and all were asleep
As Voldemort came to their door
He bashed on their door and bashed again
Not wanting to be polite
For he was the Dark Lord! He was their master!
And they should cower away in his might
James sat upright in his chair
And wildly looked around
trying to find the person or thing
That had caused that horrific sound
He suddenly realized that it was the Dark Lord
"Take Harry," he yelled, "and RUN!!
"I'll hold him off as long as I can,
Just go and protect our son!!"
Suddenly the door dropped out of its frame
"AVADA KEDAVRA!" somebody cried
James dropped, no longer breathing
And one of the Potters had died
Lily screamed as tears filled her eyes
Harry began to wail
Lily ran faster, and faster still
but the Dark Lord was on their trail
They came to a room with only one door
and that was the one they'd come through
She desperatly looked for a way to get out
But she knew that her life was through
Voldemort caught up and raised his wand
But Lily fell to her knees
"Leave Harry!" she cried, "and take me instead!
And I'll do what ever you please!!"
The Dark Lord laughed his voice high and cold
As he cried out the killing curse
And as she fell she hugged Harry tight
And soon would be taken away in a hearse
Voldemort turned to Harry at last
The Prophecy coming true
But little did he know it wasn't Harry who'd suffer
But instead would be You-Know-Who
So the killing curse turned on its master
And it left that S.O.B. half dead
And Harry Potter was famous for surviving the curse
And for the lightningbolt scar on his head.
The End...for now at least
MWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
