July 7, 2018 Mystery of Humpty Dumpty Contest by Faraz Ajmal First Place

Humpty Dumpty always sat on that wall Except for the one time he had a great fall So always but once that anyone can recall Which is why today is a big deal after all Since Little Bo Peep had lost her sheep She wanted to ask Humpty to take a peek If he could see where she should seek She could round them up within the week He wasn't on the wall, she rang Missing Alert It sent shockwaves far and wide and overt The Three Blind Mice scampered in the dirt Three Little Pigs squealed like they were hurt Next thing you know, Little Miss Muffet, Told Tom Thumb to find Humpty or 'ef it'! Three Little Kittens told Jack Spratt to "Stuff it!" Itty Bitty Spider crawled the wall and jumped it The Old Lady Who Lived In the Shoe Panicked about what to do Earlier she and Humpty had a rendezvous He fell asleep and now had no clue Most all those in Mother Goose Town Heard Humpty was missing, wasn't around Everyone was afraid he fell down All were searching, wanting him found Jack In the Beanstalk knew of the tryst He told the Old Lady they would fix this They covered up Humpty, he didn't resist Henny Penny yelled, "Sky falling!" and insists Hey Diddle Diddle got the cow to jump And dropped Humpty on the wall on his rump Starlight First Star said he looked like a lump Even The Owl And Pussycat were stumped

You have a quick wit and an enviable imagination. The nursery rhyme motif fits this fast passed work of art well. You have fun with this piece from start to finish and it brings a smile to my day. Thanks. Emile.
