Fairies Revenge.
Once the Jackdaw could sing like a bird,
The sweetest music that ever was heard.
He trilled and chirped all the day long,
His was indeed a most beauteous song.
Then he could not resist his thieving ways,
He stole a pretty object most of his days.
Jewellery and pretty baubles were his relief.
The humans would scold and say what a thief,
One day he stole some trinkets from the Fairy Queen
,
Such a daring thing had never ever before been seen
.
The Queen was distressed at such a daring deed,
Was the thief so desperate or in such dire need?
The Trolls were called in to investigate the crime,
It would keep them all out of mischief for a time.
They searched on high and on the low ground,
For this common thief he just had to be found.
Then a Red Robin whispered into the Queens ear,
The Jackdaw he is the thief or that is what I hear.
The Queen was annoyed to hear this bad news.
Such a sweet songbird that had left no clues.
The trolls then came and reported to the Fairy Quee
