Timmy

Timmy

A Poem by Holly
"

Timmy the skeleton King

"

One day Timmy went to town with his mum and dad

Although he was a friendly child, he was sometimes…bad

When they reached the edge of town

They came across a friendly clown

But when he tried to say hello

Timmy jumped onto his toes

And punched him on his bright red nose

 

Before long the clown got mad

And ate poor Timmy’s Mum and Dad

Afraid of being all alone

Timmy saved his parent’s bones

The kneecaps, skulls and the hipbones

 

People laughed and called him weird

When he cried the children cheered

They’d always shriek and call him freak

And throw eggs at him twice a week

 

 

 

 

But life went on the same as ever

They went everywhere together

When they went to the food Mart

He’d push them in the shopping cart

But before long they fell apart

And Timmy needed some spare parts

 

Timmy went to the graveyard

While his Mum and Dad kept guard

He quickly dug some old bones up

But found that he was out of luck

The bones were older than he’d planned

And broke and crumbled in his hands.

 

While he sat and pondered what to do

He found the hate just grew and grew

Towards the people in the town

Who laughed at him and bought him down


When it came to him at last

It hit him hard, and hit him fast

He almost jumped up from his seat

He just needed-fresher meat


He finished off that little town

He even got the scary clown

Then there was none to laugh at him

In that little town so grim

 

Alone in his skeleton town

Timmy wears the bony crown

His sanity would not sustain

So in his little town so strange

Timmy became quite deranged.
