Ten Little Golden Girls

Ten little golden girls swung from a vine One branch broke, and then there were nine. Nine little golden girls went to skate One fell through a crack, and then there were eight. Eight little golden girls dined on some chevon One's dish was raw, and then there were seven. Seven little golden girls stacked some old bricks One was hit in the head, and then there were six. Six little golden girls decided to take a drive One struck a tree, and then there were five. Five little golden girls went out to shore One took a nosedive, and then there were four. Four little golden girls went out for tea One was poisoned, and then there were three. Three little golden girls sailed in a canoe Then came an abrupt wind; one could not swim, and then there were two. Two little golden girls went out shopping for some fun The little girl got stuck in a store, and then there was one. One little golden girl stumbled upon a gun She fortuitously pulled the trigger, and then there were none. Written and posted on April 4th, 2016 By: Michelle Corbin
