The Kind Hearted Vampire

THE KIND HEARTED VAMPIRE

A vampire once pledged to abstain
From his normal beverage in vein
Virgins’ white necks full waiving 
He sated his craving
Gathering taxes, although less humane

He worked hard and his skill he refined
But his conscience troubled his mind
So returned to the virgins
Didn’t need too much urgin
On the whole it was not so unkind


[Female prize]

Got a nice laugh thinking about him needing little urgin' to return to virgins, Geoffrey. Thanks for supporting the contest and congratulations on your win. Have a wonderful New Year! Best wishes, Carolyn
