Goldi locks has chicken pox

"Goldi Locks has chicken pox!"
Said Mrs locks one day.
"you may not go outside,
or to the park to play."

So Mrs Locks rang Mother Bear,
(apologizing for the chair).
But the bear said "Sorry Mrs Locks.
For bears do not get chicken pox."

Sneaky Goldi in her room,
hiding behind the wooden broom,
Painting more spots onto her chin,
Said "what a mess I'm in!"
