Cora Pearl's Woodland Encounter
If you enter Grimney wood
Care should be taken
Lest you should
Find something dreadful to behold
That would make your blood run icy cold
Tread softly in this spooky place
Or you could find you’re face to face
With something you’d prefer to see
From behind the comfort of a tree
In a clearing picturesque
Squats a creature quite grotesque
The creature turns and spies you there
Transfixing you with malevolent stare
Then it opens up its mouth to say
‘My God you’re ugly go away’
Also…
Something wicked full of spite
Stalks through Grimney woods at night
Looking for some souls to tease
By throwing powder that makes you sneeze
He is a pest when he bites your knee
As you can never shake him free
He only stands at three foot four
I could be wrong he maybe more
But compared to me he is quite small
As I am over four foot tall
Then he grins and roars with laughter
What is this little fellow after?
