Henry the Hedgehog

Lovable Henry was a dapper, pompous hedgehog His flaming style was ritzy, he put on the dog. We thought it amusing he wore a silky top hat. He was afraid of nothing but a prissy stuck up cat. Henry had a lady friend, she was so loud, obscene. The two of them together had much fun being seen. She wore a bustle, a bonnet, and prissy pantaloons. He wore the most outrageous suits, with bright yellow moons. They went on their dates in the vegetable garden out back. He would pack a picnic, taken in a crinkled paper sack. Henry the Hedgehog and His lady friend we called Honey. We thought she was in it for his body, not his money. The cat would watch them both, rolling his yellow evil eyes. Watch them laughing idiotically under the blue skies. Then he would chase poor Henry, our little tiny pet Back into the house. Luckily, he has not caught him yet!
