Wild Valentine night.

[RUFFIAN]

                                     

SIR ENERGIZER BLUNNY SUGGESTS...
"...Wild Valentine night."
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
TO WHICH THE BRUISED BATTERED RUFF ONE RETORTS = "I WISH!"

       Actually   
Took A Step Back.........Onto Empty Air
When I Thought I Was Still On The Deck
Instead It Was Really The Next Level Down
      That Left Poor Ruff As A Wreck
           


Humpty Dumpty Sat On A Wall
Humpty Dumpty Had A Great Fall

Humpty Dumpty Broke His Crown
And, Some May Think Him Dumb
Ruffian Did Something More Stupid
And Ended Up Breaking Her Thumb!
               
And Wounded Her Knee And Arm
She's Bruised, Battered & Sore
Raven Has The Greatest Advice
NeverMore ~  NeverMore ~ NeverMore
