Little Penny Rosalind Marr
Had to wish upon a star
For when she stood at the Devil’s Cave
She knew she would reach an early grave
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMT2AglZf3n
The cave was quite cold and dark
There was no light, not even a spark
She resented the dares from the other kids
If only they had shut their lids
But no, they laughed with a “haw haw haw”
Voices overlapping with a black crow’s caw
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2HmwVxzRF
She stood at the mouth in the dead of night
Had to choose whether or not to take flight
In the cave she’d be dead
But back to the kids and they’d have her head
The choice was simple, yes indeed
Because survival was her greatest need
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVhsjTaWYT
Goodbye to the immature kids that laughed
That teased and tricked and were daft
Shed take the devil over them any day
Or even night, that was all to say
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmc4zVqqXN
Little Penny stuck up her nose
And as she left the other kids rose
“No way!” they had cried with a hoot and a shout
“Let’s see what Penny’s all about!”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOygaPfT1Y
She marched away, full of fears
But at least she was away from their open ears
“Really,” she murmured, heart a’ pounding
“Do they not realize how they’ve been sounding?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdyuhsaALs
Since they were little, those kids loved to tease
Puff up their chests and say they were the bee’s knees
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuwYRaEUj1
Ever since Penny was small, she had been withdrawn
Making her the perfect poor target for those hellspawn
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTm2SmMw6M4
She wandered for a while, perhaps she was lost
She escaped those buffoons, but at what cost?
The paths, they seemed to stretch on forever
Her regret grew toward this pointless endeavor
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtoX711CZ8
The place was pitch black, she could not see
And nervously she hummed, off-key
There were no sounds, but how the water dripped
The atmosphere made her cease humming, tight-lipped
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuc1qKsfHyR
For in the back of the cave she heard
A sound much worse than a mimicking bird
It rumbled low, loud and deep
Much like a tiger, fast asleep
But this creature was awake, she could tell
Because it copied her song, and quite well
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTS7dzXeMC
Penny’s first thought was to run
Until it was daytime, with a shining sun
But she did not run, she even stayed put
Her curiosity swole at what was afoot
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNzu9WDTUU
With a timid voice, she asked: “Hello?”
Would there be any answer from the beast below?
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXrOBtbJI1
It paused it’s rumbling, purred inquisitively at her
All she could make out was a blur
Then it opened its eyes, glowing and blue
And she could finally see the monster anew
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbfSD5fEtq
She squeaked a bit, it was a frightening sight
This thing emitting an eerie azure light
Too many tendrils, too many wide eyes
Its form was really quite a surprise
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvLiYXgPDS
Little Penny Marr was never scared-
Except for this thing and the teeth it bared
However, it did not destroy her to sand
It simply smiled, and grabbed her hand
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LoegjK7Kg
It dragged her along, glided across the floor
Little Penny wondered what was in store
Through they caves they walked and walked
But not Penny never dared to talk
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZF4Y7RRQAi
Finally, at the end of the cave, there was a familiar glowing
The light of the moon, that she was knowing
She smiled at how it showed her the way
Was there any way she could repay?
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTIsyg6AXw
But it did not demand, just gave her hand a kiss
“Is there anything else I can do for you, miss?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEzF4cpVhN
She gaped, for he could talk
He had talked when she thought he could only walk
But when she got over her shock
She told him her thoughts at five o’ clock
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xx3qbgSRz
“Well yes, these kids have been bothering me,
So if it’s not too much to ask, could you make them stop, see?”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ptXgLYLJh
“Of course,” it said, “I’ll rid them for you,
They’ll probably be quite scared of me too.”
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ISBoXFsIS
So, tendril in hand
Girl and monster went to disrupt their band
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2IH7mjTNP
When those hellspawn children caught sight of him
They yelled, screamed, confidence dim
They cried and shrieked and ran around
All he had to do was screech a sound
And finally when they had gone
The sun had risen to a gentle dawn
142Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHNFqqw2DS
Penny laughed, she laughed for a while
And when she was done she wore a smile
She looked up at this creature she had found
That was better than a dear pet hound
