Humpty Dumpty

Humpty Dumpty

A Poem by A.E. Reed
"

Another take on Humpty Dumpty and his fall.

"
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall

And 'crack' opened his head

Instantly, he was dead

Never did come the King's men

To try to put him together again

Pooled around him was his blood

Mixed in with the brown, ugly mud

And a pale white was his skin

The battle for life he could not win

So he gave in

Letting death capture him

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall

Oh poor, Humpty Dumpty is dead

And not a single tear was shed
