Smurf This!

Smurf you, smurf that. I can even feed smurf 
to my kitty cat.
I learned to smurf at a very young age, 
after I learned to smurf the page.
Vanity Smurf taught me how to stare in a mirror,
Greedy Smurf taught me to keep things nearer.
After I reached smurfhood, things became clearer.

I could smurf all day and smurf all night
I could even smurf with a knight- much to my delight!
Brainy taught me smurfing is the only way to do things right.
Papa even taught me to smurf and write.

Hefty and Clumsy might smurf things wrong
But Harmony still smurfed right along
I taught them all to smurf a smursful song.
Smurfing happily my entire life
Nanny engaged me in smurfing a fife!

Then SHE came along...and smurfing felt so wrong.

Smurfette- all blond and giggly,
Superficial and silly
Grouchy smurfed her like a lilly.
Dreamy smurfed off into space.
Even Grandpa had a smurf on his face.

Tired of her smurfing antics
She- smurfing to be a romantic...
I smurfed her just how one could be
When smurfing with my family!

Once again, we are all smurfing proud!
So smurfed she is not around-
My Smurfs' finally came to realize
Certain smurfing was no real prize.
