Goldie Blocks Had No Fear
Goldie Blocks had no fear of anything – not closets, the dark or stairs.
Faerie tales did not scare her, she did not fear lions, tigers or bears.
She is fearless, her mother and her father agreed about their child.
They allowed her to roam the land. Goldie Blocks was rather wild.
The neighbors said “I would raise her this way and that”.
Some thought she might need a paddling with a pit and a pat.
Her parents liked her confidence, and kept their way with her.
She grew up self-assured, honest, with integrity simple and pure.
She had no fear of adults, teachers, science, math or books.
Nursery rhymes had not frightened her – neither did knives or hooks.
She stomped on her nightmares and chased the bogey man away.
When bears woke her up from her nap, she was ready to play.
