An Ogre Came over for DinnerAn ogre came over for dinner.He showed up with ice cream and cake.We thought, “It can’t hurt,since he brought us dessert,”so we asked him to join us for steak.

He crushed the first chair that he sat on.He busted the table in two.He ranted and ravedand was badly behaved,like a rhino escaped from the zoo.

He smashed every plate in the kitchen.He shattered each saucer and cup.He broke every bowl.He was out of controlas he ran around tearing things up.

He broke all the beds in our bedrooms.He even demolished a door.He cracked all the wallsin the stairways and halls,and he left several holes in the floor.

And when he was done causing damage,although we all wanted to scream,he said, “That was funbut I really must run.I hope you enjoy the ice cream.”
