Winnie the Pooh Meets the Grimm Reaper SHort version for the darkscape contest Winnie the Poo cosmic bear And his sidekick Sammy the Squirrel Were sitting outside after lunch Watching the world go by Saying hello to all their friends Who stopped by to chat The air grew cold A big storm was approaching Winnie looked up And saw a gigantic black bat flying Straight out of hell itself A man dressed in black riding on its back The bat landed Unloading its passenger The man came up to Winnie and said, “Are You Winnie the Cosmic bear?” “that is who I am This is Sammy the squirrel What can we do for you And who are you anyway?” The man dressed in the black robe, Perturbed at this act of defiance Stood up and raised his scythe in the air and said to Winnie and Sammy, “I am the Grimm Reaper Sent from the heavens Per our rules and regulations And it is time for you” “But I am not ready to go Lots of things to do People to meet Honey to eat” “Mr. Bear you are on my list See here you are” and showed him the list Winnie looked at the list And demanded to see a lawyer Winnie stood up Growled for good measure And ran off into the forest The Grimm reaper caught up to him Grabbed him And threw him On the back of the cosmic bat And flew into the setting sun Poor Winnie was never seen again He was missed Sammy led the wake And all cried all day |
