《Poems》The 3 Little Pigs
Advertisement
There was a wolf
That I once knew
Whose favorite dish
Was piggy stew
As a child
He was my friend
But then these big 'ol teeth grew in
Now mean and nasty
Crude and rude
This wolf was known
To kill friends for food
Years, they pass
He's out of my life
And as it is said
Out of sight, out of mind
Now college ends
And then I saw
A little house
Made of straw
It really was the quiantest thing
I couldn't help it
I moved in!
My brothers, though
Were rather rich
One had a house of twigs
And the other a house of bricks
So I get a call
From wolfy man
"Can I visit? I miss you, old friend!"
A little surprised,
I exclaim, "Why not?"
"Good," he responds,
Licking his chops
So not long after
I heard a knock
I get right up
To open the lock
But through the keyhole
I see an evil grin
"Little pig, little pig! Let me come in!"
Suddenly, it comes to mind
This wolf, he ain't no friend of mine
"I'm waiting!" he cries
"Let me in!"
"No," I reply.
"Not by the hairs on my chinny chin chin!"
"Oh well," wolf grins
"You know, I haven't had lunch."
And the wolf began to huff and puff.
But little did wolfy know
As he began to blow and blow
In my house there was a back door
Which I was very grateful for
I watched from a distance
At my brother's twig house
As my beautiful, wonderful house fell down
Where I had gone, wolf didn't know
"Hey, what happened? Where did pig go??"
Out of the corner of wolf's eyes
His vision hit
A little house

Made of twigs
"Piggy, you can't hide forever!
I'm partial to pork chops,
but bacon sounds better..."
"When will this end??"
My brother cried.
"I see you brought a friend.
Dear piggy, you're too kind."
And wolfy, with his evil grin
Yelled, "Porkie pie, let me come in!"
"Not by the hairs on my chinny chin chin!"
Poor older brother shook with fear
"C'mon wolf, get out of here!"
Eyes ablaze, he shook his head
"A fine meal of piggy I'll have instead."
Inside the house,
I motioned towards the back door
Just as wolfy
Began to roar
We hurried down the street
To our brother's brick house
With racing feet
"The house is down!"
Wolf cried with joy, then
"Where are the piggies?
Where's my pork??"
He wandered and wandered
His stomach growling
And carried on
With his prowling
He came across
A house of bricks
And he saw through the window
The three little pigs!
"Hello, piggies! I've found you at last!"
Delighted he would end his fast
"Little pigs, little pigs! Let me come in!"
"No!" said the brother with the house of bricks.
"Not by the hairs on my chinny chin chin!"
"Oh, silly pig!" said wolf, patronizing
"Either you come out, or down goes your house.
I'll have no compromising."
"Let's go out the back door!"
Said the brother with the house of twigs
"C'mon, let's go, or else we're dead pigs!"
"No worries, no problems,"
My eldest brother winked.
"He can't blow down
A house made of bricks!"
"Oh no!" wolfy groaned.
"There goes breakfast, lunch, and dinner...
Unless maybe...
I'll climb through the chimney!"
So determined in his heart
With a ladder in his hands
Wolf climbed to the roof
To try to break in
But us pigs,
We were smarter
So we got ourselves a log
And the fire burned brighter and brighter
So the wolf on the roof
Hungry and stoked
Was too preoccupied
To notice the smoke
In he jumped
"Ow!" he cried
I guess we'll be having
Wolf for dinner tonight
