It was a dream come true
When I met Nancy Drew,
I was lounging on the lawn,
Sipping on some juice and gobbling hot fried prawn
When into the street came a convertible painted blue!
I got up with a jerk and splashed the juice on myself
For it was Nancy Drew herself!
The titian-haired girl stepped out of her car and grinned,
She came over and said, “Hey, I am on a mission.”
“It’s about a thief who stole a painting from an exhibition.”
“And we suspect the gallery attendant himself!”
I gushed, “My neighbour, Mr Trunchbull is a gallery attendant too!”
She grimly said, “Well then it’s time to bid him adieu.”
We marched to his house and knocked on the door,
Suddenly, I saw him running out of his backdoor!
We ran behind him till he stopped where the poisonous ivy grew.
He hung his head in shame and surrendered,
Nancy said, “Not only will you be punished but also be sacked.”
Mr Trunchbull wailed while Nancy deftly handcuffed him to the car’s seat
She waved back as she sped in her car down the street.
I beamed to myself and went back to lounging on my lawn,
Sipping on my juice and gobbling on some cold fried prawn…
