Harridan Hattie crept up one day
And frightened the neighbourhood kids away.
Oh! She fumed, she cursed and she spat
She didn’t spare even the measly cat.
.
Harridan Hattie sat at her window
And scowled for the sun bothered her to the core.
Behold, there was a knock on her door.
‘Who dares bother Hattie! Both me no more!’
.
‘Tis’ me,’ came the meek voice of little Grace.
Harridan Hattie felt nauseous looking at her cherubic face.
‘Mommy said we must always share
Our goodies with those who for none care!’
.
Something inside Harridan Hattie snapped,
She let little Grace step inside.
They both ate lemonade and cookies,
And Hattie listened to little Grace’s stories.
.
Little Grace unfailingly visited old Hattie.
They formed a bond; a friendship, you see.
A few months later Hattie stepped into the sunshine,
Walking hand in hand with Grace, wearing a broad smile!
