The Girl Cried Wolf, but Nobody Came

The girl cried, "Wolf!"

But nobody came.

So the girl cried, "Wolf!"

Again, and again.

 

Into the dark, into the flame

She met with the wolf

Again, and again.

 

She ran, and she ran

But they stood still the same

The girl cried, "Wolf!"

And nobody came.
