Where Did You Learn This

She was ambushed by two boys,
But she took them down. 
Unfortunately, there were no witnesses around.

They sided against her, lied to the principal.
She was summoned to his office, expecting the worst.
The best happened instead thanks to the school nurse.

The nurse had been driving past the trees you see.
She had seen those monsters attacking the wee.
They were bigger and meaner, and bullies for sure.
But this little miss got her licks in loud and pure.

The boys ran home to their mothers, licking their wounds.
They said their daddies could beat hers. They were both goons.

She was called to the office, vilified though, for now.
The story was told, and she came out in a wow.
She was asked where she learned to pound boys like that.
She had six brothers, so it was easy, and that is a fact.

Having six brothers will help in such situations.. I hate bullies, especially when they target opposite gender..

I despise their bullying ways, and try to get to the root of the problem. Usually someone bigger is bullying them.
