“Children, and most especially girls--- pretty ones, sheltered from the world--- should never talk to unknown men, who likely want to gobble them, For there are wolves with pelts of hair, whose huge teeth serve to say beware, but also wolves who seem quite sweet, when wooing women in the street with flattery and playful charm. It's very hard to see the harm till they devour you, blood and bone. Perhaps you keep one in your home? My moral is a warning too: that smooth-tongued wolf will ruin you.” — Clare Pollard
Children, and most especially girls---
pretty ones, sheltered from the world---
should never talk to unknown men,
who likely want to gobble them,
For there are wolves with pelts of hair,
whose huge teeth serve to say beware,
but also wolves who seem quite sweet,
when wooing women in the street
with flattery and playful charm.
It's very hard to see the harm
till they devour you, blood and bone.
Perhaps you keep one in your home?
My moral is a warning too:
that smooth-tongued wolf will ruin you.
