WHAT DID JUST HIT ME?

Little Miss Red Riding Hood
Was skipping in an enchanted wood,
Twirling a daisy in her hand
Humming a song in la-la land

The sun was dancing to her tune
Waltzing along was the moon
A fox was chasing its own tail
down little Red Riding Hood’s trail

Out of the blue, out of the down
Along came an engine screaming its horn
Knocked little Red Riding Hood down
Snorted, sneered and rode back to town

The mourning sun went to hide
The daisies drooped, the moon she cried,
‘Poor little Miss Red Riding Hood
Skipping alone in an enchanted wood’


‘But’, screeched the owl in a loud aside,
‘Why did she hop where engines ride?’

somehow this reminded me of the nursery rhyme "Piggy on the railway, picking up stones. Down came an engine and broke piggy's bones. Ah said the piggy, thats not fair. Uh said the engine driver I dont care."

i still remember it .. :)

Little Miss Red Riding Hood
Oft forgot the rules of the wood
Treading the path of the forbidden nook
The first and final option she took
