Mary, Mary, quite contrary
A froward lass was she
When told to keep the chickens in
She set the beasties free
Out of their run they came
Saw the garden
Mistook for the same
And pecked and poked and ate
Till not a pretty bloom remained.

There was a guy who participated in Friday Fictioneers (he does still, occasionally) who wrote fantastic re-imaginings of the fairy tales. It’s not a bad way to go 🙂
