Lennie SmallA Poem by Faith
He was big and tall
Never liked to brawl Wasn't like by Curley but was good at buckin barley His stature was daunting Curley would call it taunting His strength seemed unreal His hand could make a mouse squeal he broke Curley's hand with ease All he had to do was squeeze He wasn't the smartest fellow But maybe the nicest never shallow His smile even warmed Crooks heart it even comforted the tart Even to the smallest creatures he was kind It was like the way he was designed He loved furry animals especially rabbits In fact his dream was to tend the rabbits It was the only thing that was really on his mind It could be said that it made him blind But it seemed to make him proud like that was his pride Too bad his dream died His companion George Milton was his best friend Really his only friend They shared the dream of owning their own land Where he would have a hand George shot him in the back of the skull His name was Lennie Small © 2012 FaithAuthor's Note
