Peppers for Punishment

The corners, Bibbetty!

Buttetty, me's dustetting the kitty cat bum.

No brown words.

Butetty...

None!

But, butt, buttetty, BUM!

You're a very bad pixie. Sit in the corner and learn to be good.

*shuffle, kicking cup*

Give that egg back to Blissemloare.

*shuffle, grumble, push cup along*

Silly old witchetty and her silly old catetty

Did you just say what I thought you said?

Me? Nope, neveretty.

I heard you, now you will pay for being so rude.

Sit in the corner and learn to be good.

*Bibbetty sobbed into her hand*

NyXy picked up her wand and spoke forth a spell...

A peck of putrid peppers

for a pesky pixie to pickle.

To eat them hour by hour

until her words become sweet not sour.

*sob*

*poof*

Pepperetties!

Bibbetty saw there were peppers galore,

Not putrid but fine and shiney, what's more...

A pepper teapot; full, sweet and hot

to sweeten her taste and fill her with grace.

Bibbetty marvelled at all the fine food

for nothing was putrid or rotten, but good.

A light yellow pepper

and one deepest green

Plus one bright red apple

And two small aubergines.

She nibbled the fruit

and drank all the tea.

It was such a hoot, she giggled with glee.

Full of good cheer,

grinning ear to ear,

our pixie was delighted

to be let off so lightly.

The cat and the dragon

marvelled agahst.

Thinking this was all wrong,

it could never last.

A nasty old witch

become a kind master?

It must be the end

so they prepared for disaster.

This cannot be,

it's all such a drama.

It must be the wand,

not my head trauma.

Blissemloare came up to her mistress

feeling her pain and deepest distress, 

She offered her love

and comforting touch,

but to no avail

it was all too much.

So the cat and the dragon

joined with the witch

and promised to keep

this distressing secret.

Don't tell a soul

that her head bone was broken

and now all her powers

are but a token.
