Emily 146 [SSC8 Poetry Challenge]

[INTRO] [Male, spoken] Hold up, Hold up... I SAID HOLD UP!!!! I have some poetry for you. It's kinda cute. Anyway... [VERSE 1] On such a night, or such a night, Would anybody care If such a little figure Slipped quiet from its chair -- [VERSE 2] So quiet -- Oh how quiet, That nobody might know But that the little figure Rocked softer -- to and fro -- [VERSE 3] On such a dawn, or such a dawn -- Would anybody sigh That such a little figure Too sound asleep did lie [VERSE 4] For Chanticleer to wake it -- Or stirring house below -- Or giddy bird in orchard -- Or early task to do? [VERSE 5] There was a little figure plump For every little knoll -- Busy needles, and spools of thread -- And trudging feet from school -- [VERSE 6] Playmates, and holidays, and nuts -- And visions vast and small -- Strange that the feet so precious charged Should reach so small a goal!
