Julianna May

I boarded up my windows
Chained up my doors
And threw the key away.
Then dove again to find it
When you pounded on the door.
When I found it
You had gone again
So I threw it out once more.

I built a moat around my home-
A great big castle, now for one.
I threw the key to the bottom
Where the gators swim
But what am I to do
Now that I want to
Let someone else in?
