Five Little Boys
Five little boys climbed a tree
Perhaps they didn't heed of the banshee
They still had time to flee
She emerged out the dark with her face full of glee
With a Panthers agility
The lads looked at her amicably
Without realizing the abnormality
She heard a racket and veered back in confusion
A girl came out a bush and gawked at the illusion
She wailed at the phenomenon
The witch lent a smile for she assumed it was her doing
till she glanced into the girl's eyes
and realized
she wasn't looking at her but instead
she was staring behind
The croon twisted to see
A sight she could never foresee
For the boys were no longer sitting
But dangling from the tree
