The Goldilocks Project

Goldilocks in 3-Syllable Lines

 

They're sitting

They're eating

A spoon full

Of porridge

But it is

Too hot so

They're up from

The table

And out to

The forest

And not too

Much later

Comes Goldie,

She's walking.

She knocks at

The door but

There's nothing,

Nobody.

She peaks in,

Then walks in

And there on

The table,

Three bowls. Yes!

Of porridge!

She tastes from

The big bowl.

Too hot, ow!

She tastes from

The next bowl.

Too cold, brrr!

Can't eat it.

She tastes from

The small bowl.

Delicious!

And soon gone

She's full now,

But sleepy.

She climbs in

A big chair.

Too hard! Ouch!

Not that one.

She climbs in

The next chair

Too soft! Nope!

Not that one.

She climbs on

The small chair.

It's perfect!

It's CRASH BOOM!

The chair, it

Is broken.

And Goldie

Is hurting.

She needs to

Lie down now.

She seeks for

A bedroom.

She finds it.

A big bed.

She climbs in.

It's too hard!

She climbs on

The next bed.

It's too soft!

There's one more

She lies on

The small bed

And soon she

Is sleeping.

Then back come

The three bears!

“My porridge!

Who tried it?

“My porridge!

Who tried it?”

“My porridge!

It's all gone!”

My chair—some

One used it.”

“My chair—some

one broke it!”

“My bed! Who

Lay on it?”

“My bed! Who

Lay on it?”

“My bed! She's

Still on it!”

The girl wakes.

Sees three bears!

She screams and

She jumps up

She dives out

The window

And never

Again do

The bears see

That blonde girl.

Good riddance.
