Terrible Tess

$3.00

A cautionary but humorous poem about an obese young girl.

 

Terrible Tess : 5 stanzas each of 4 lines. A cautionary tale about a lazy, large girl.

 

Terrible Tess was always a mess,

Her clothes were all dirty and torn;

When anyone told her to clean herself up,

She would treat that poor person with scorn.

 

Her socks were so smelly they walked by themselves;

Her hair was all matted with knots.

Her homework was sloppy and quite hard to read

As the whole lot was all covered with blots.
