Harry Potter

A not-so-silly poem about our favorite protagonist.

The night was cold

The house was old

Lily and James were inside

Harry was there

Smothered in care

None were aware of what was to come

It was Halloween

And the last time they were ever to be seen

Alive and happy and well

The dark lord breaks in

He wanted to win

The losses had been to many recently

James yelled "Take Harry and run!"

He wanted to save his wife and his son

He fought as Lily ran

Hiding in the dark

She hear the spell for that evil mark

She knew and muffled a sob

Voldemort then appeared

It was just what she feared

As he lifted his wand

He said, "Get out of my way

Or you must pay

It is the boy that I am here for."

"Never!" she cried

"You'll regret it," he replied

And he used the killing curse

Onto Harry he turned

Through the air the green light burned

But Harry was not harmed

It was reflected back to him

His situation was grim

And he was reduced to practically nothing

But Voldemort was not dead

So away he fled

Leaving Harry in the wreck

Hagrid then came

And not knowing of his fame

Harry was left at the Dursleys'

For the next ten years

He put up with Dudley and Piers

He was beat up and slept in the broom closet

Then he got his letter

And things changed for the better

And he went to Hogwarts

He became friends with Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger

But still he was in greatly morbid danger

He fought Voldemort and the dementors

Watched Cedric Diggory and Sirius die

And learned he was living a lie

When he found the prophecy

What does his future hold

Is it metal or gold?

The Half-Blood Prince is coming!
