Humpty Dumpty and the Tower Wall

Humpty Dumpty sat on a tower wall

Instead of going to the mall.

Below were women and men

Who ignored Humpty again and again.

Finally, a prince yelled up, “Are you stuck?”

Humpty Dumpty looked down and said, “Yup.”

“Humpty,” said the prince, “let down your hair

“That I may climb thy golden stair.”

“But I could not if I tried,” Humpty cried.

“Eggs have no hair,” Humpty sighed.

A big bad Wolf pushed the prince away

And bellowed, “I will save the day.”

Humpty Dumpty dared not rebuff

The Wolf who cried, “I’ll huff and puff,

”And I’ll blow your tower down.

“Bricks no longer make me frown.”

Humpty Dumpty sat on the tower wall.

Humpty Dumpty had a towering fall.

“Alas,” said the prince, “Humpty is through,

“But Wolf, the yolk is on you!”
