A Short Birthday Party Fairytale

The party barely got started
When a stinky ogre appeared
He belched, and then loudly farted
Exactly the kind we all feared

He ripped open the presents
And they weren’t even his
Spooked everyone present
By acting nasty like this

He blew out the candles
And ate half the cake
Tore off his sandals
And for goodness sake

Did his feet ever stink!
Put on some music
Somebody think! Before
This nasty punk ruins it.

We thought it was over
But to the rescue came Quix
Who showed that old ogre
Some of her tricks

With a musical twist
In a magical dance
He couldn’t resist
But soon split his pants

All red in the face
He cried out, ‘fix me!”
Put in his place
By a pixie named Quixie

He then recognized
He’d been badly behaved
So he apologized
And the party was saved

- THE END -
