Poem Small Hopes

Tweet

@Jessicalynnt has set another challenge, this time with the theme of these five words - sad, blue, rough, tired, low Poem Small Hopes We can’t accept your entry to our little competition game To give each of the seven dwarfs a suitable new name. Your entries made me splutter ‘What on Earth!’ Blue sounds like a miserable Smurf For example while Low is politically incorrect For someone not very tall when standing erect. Tired is a bit like the original Sleepy And then you add a pervy Gothic dwarf called Creepy. So there are just three names left to go. Rough sounds too violent, so no no, no. Similarly for presenting a dwarf called Sad Have you gone stark staring mad? I’d say yes you are insane, Wanting to play a dwarf yourself with your own name When you are five foot eight Here are the winning entries, which we think are really great; Hernia, Colon, Anthrax, and Smackhead Thicko, Cowpat and last but not least, Fred.
