Sparkle Plenty
Sparkle Plenty walked the halls,
in high heels that were three inch tall.
She saw not the boys and girls,
Tossing her soft sewed in curls.
Sparkle Plenty is the school’s vice
Any man would look at twice.
Her nails are long and manicured.
This position was secured.
Sparkle Plenty was soon asked,
To do lunch duty’s daily task.
One day the students had a fight.
Food was flying at great height.
Sparkle Plenty soon was through.
With this she didn’t have a clue.
She headed for the café door.
Her heels slipped on the foot soaked floor.
Sparkle Plenty lay face up, real still.
The students ceased their throwing thrill.
Some rushed to her wounded side,
Until help came there to abide.
Sparkle Plenty learned that day,
That kids were human in their way.
And now in flats she walks the halls,
To greet the children, one and all.
