Litter Red

Litter Red Riding Hood

Did the countryside

No possible good

Plastic bags and dirty rags

Coffee cups from Timmy Horton  

Tin cans and ketchup bottles

Hamburger bags she was sportin

Old newspapers that she’d scatter

Wherever didn’t seem to matter

Empty cereal boxes, left astrew

For her was nothing new

 

People finally complained to her Gramma

Even the wolf started to yamma

Then a citizen group was formed

With Little Red being sternly warned

 

It seemed their effort was for naught

She continued to litter every spot

Till, in an effort to refrain’er

The community purchased

A garbage container

The litter problem

Has since gone away

The container was needed

For only one day

Because of hauling

Litter Red away

Did they take her to the dump, or was she recycled?

she was green binned
It seems one was more than enough

Lol! The title drew me in! Very clever and fun poem. You do the humorous poetry very well.

[Dave Brown]

I enjoy the foolish stuff with a umber of foolish chapters underway just because I enjoy the writing
Did you know Ana Papaya

in reference to your deer poem, we have them visit each night
A beautiful creature

[Papaya]

I get them where I am too. They really are beautiful.
I did one of those silly spirt animal quizzes once and my spirit animal is the deer apparently. 🤷‍♀️🙂

lol too funny. They hauled Little Red away for littering. I don’t like it when people throw trash on the ground so I understand

[Dave Brown]

neither do most people which Litter Red learned to her regret
Have a lovely day er; afternoon/evening PB
