I was reading some Nursery Rhymes to a friend`s daughter  and she loved Little Miss Riding Hood.  She asked me to write a version for her.  This is the result and I`m pleased to say little Katie loved it !



Little Miss Red...!

Little Miss Red
got up out of bed
to go and visit her gran

picked up her coat
and a five pound note
runs out of her caravan

through the dark wood
dressed in her red hood
her basket on her arm

feels someone is there
sees a fox, what a scare !
but she`d never come to harm

for in her pocket
found next to her Locket
she carries a small pistol 

if he comes too near
he can join big brown bear
sweeping the streets of Bristol !

so off she skips
a smile on her lips
can`t wait to see her Grandmother

she`ll have such fun
playing out in the sun
best place to be through the summer  !
