Speaking of Persimmonetta
Persimmonetta was a beautiful faery maiden indeed
She had eyelashes galore and a grasshopper for a steed
Is she the one with pink hair asked a bullfrog, just freed
From a witch’s mushroom house, way down under a weed
I refused to answer, for he was sporting a smart suit made of tweed
His reputation was one of fly-eating, jealousy and greed.
Is her name Persimmonetta? Asked a snake from the weed.
I screamed and ran off, fear leading me far away to meet my own need.
