A Series of Unfortunate Events

A Series of Unfortunate Events

A Poem by Lindsay G

Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire
One an inventor with the longest hair
One a reader who doesn't put on airs
The last both biter and cook who dares
To help to save the orphans three.

Lemony Snicket, the author true
A member of V.F.D., are you?
A depressed and depressing person who
Records the sad tale, if only to
Tell his and the Baudelaires' tale to all.

Olaf and Esmé are villains that
Adopt the awful Carmelita Spats
And their assistant who is fat
Burns in a fire like other "brats"
The enemies of that wicked couple.

Duncan, Isadora, and Quigley, smart
Triplets and friends of Baudelaires from the start
Duncan and Quigley, brave at heart
Isadora is too, and she's skilled at the arts
They help the orphans in times of need.

And then there's the infernal eye
That follows the orphans as they cry
The situation is grim, the end seems nigh
But the orphans and friends end up on top, high-
Er than outsmarted sinners.

When the tragic tale ends, the children are safe
On an island with nothing to chafe
Against the poor unfortunate souls of the waifs
Finally free from verbal strafe
They can be happy at last.
