Goldilock's Little Dears

She peeked through the keyhole espying a messy cool lair   
she ate up the tiniest bowl she could find      
disheveled, disarrayed, disordered were they with wild hair  

She chose a tiny seat and turned a bears world upside down  
smash went the wood, and he howled     
grungy, grimy and grubby were they and sadly they frowned 

She cleaned up there mess though she caused them distress 
come the night, the little wee bed fit just right 
muddled, mussed and mussy were they but also such bless  

She learned how to live in a world full of bears in plain sight   
though she called them all "dears, " 
it was the baby bear she called, beautiful, beloved and bright

Such a sweet poem about Goldilocks and the three bears. I enjoyed it immensely. So pleased "she cleaned up their mess" because, after all, she was an intruder! She owed it to them. Nice work, Mystic Rose Rose
