Please note that I do not claim to be a poet. Thank you. I thought this was cute. I did it for my English class

The Tale of the Imp

I’m not your powdered princess dressed in blue
Living with seven dwarf men is a crazy thing to do
I don’t have long lemon locks
Or any use for Pandora’s box
I’m not so sheltered as to befriend a mouse
I’d sooner shoe it out like a louse
I didn’t prick my finger on a spindle
No Prince will ever make my heart kindle
I pushed Jack down the hill
Only because he tried to cop a feel
I would steal the mittens from the silly kittens
And throw them out saying “Good riddance!”
I shoved Humpty-Dumpty and it was great
He tasted better every drop I ate
I threw an acorn at Chicken Little
And had the cat play the world’s smallest fiddle
I told the puppet he was merely a toy
And gave the wolf his clever ploy
I’m sorry I can’t be a beautiful nymph
I am just your average loveable imp
I Want To Hear Your Song...

That's funny! The first line I liked especially.

I've got a question, though. When you said 'shoe it out' did you mean to say 'shoo it out' ?

I liked it a lot, and I'm surprised how well the word 'kitten' worked with 'riddance'. I didn't expect it to work, but it did! From the first line to the last, it was light-hearted and funny. Good job!
