The Toy in The Fair



Yesterday, my parents took me to a fair
A complete surprise I wasn't aware!
When we finally parked our cars and reached there
It was amazing! The opposite of a nightmare!

I saw the bright lights, such a delight!
The shops had big dolls and enormous malls
I jumped and peeked in each every shop
And exactly when the excitement was about to drop

I saw this glowing toy, usually used to plan a ploy
I was a trickster, a prankster! My mindset was to destroy
It became so after the story of troy.

Though my plan wasn't to hurt someone
But through pranks grow joy.

I wanted that trifle though being a Pygmy
It was just so fancy!

My parents said no, no and nope
And to our home we drove!
Soon forgot about after I had a good dream
But as soon as I woke up I found that thing
My parents bought the toy while I was asleep!
:)
