<< arthur and the nite of the evil cherries>>
 
i ate a bowl of cherries
  perched upon a chair
  Ms. teenie  went to bed that nite
   and left it sitting there.
  the aroma was enticing,
  the sugar of forbidden fruit
  seeds and stems all glowing red
  seemed too good to be true.
  So silently i scaled the heights
   and overturned the bowl,
  so perfect was my escapade
   i reveled in delights.
  The precious orbs rolled everywhere
  as one by one i gorged that nite,
  but when the dawn broke thru the sky,
   i didn't feel quite right.
  so there ms. teenie found me
  guilty,belly up and rolling round
  she rubbed my tummy all that day,
   casue i'd eaten the whole whole pound !!!
