Conflict Resolution

by Rachelle Allen

Stacked Limerick Contest Winner 
 
 
Two sisters named Hannah and Janna
had one thing they sure weren't a fan uh:
'Twas working for pay.
They preferred just to play
and mooch off their wealthy Granddadda.
 
But their parents, named Big Bill and Lill
rejected that and said, quite shrill,
"These girls need to learn
to work and to earn.
So, Granddadda, that wallet, you chill!"
 
Granddadda was not to be bossed.
Big Bill and Lill's edict, he tossed.
So Hannah and Janna
moved in with Granddadda
who gave not a damn what that cost!
 
But, in less than a month, something stunk,
as Granddadda's big bank accounts shrunk.
Each lazy granddaughter
spent money like water
and left him as poor as a skunk.
 
Granddadda must now earn his keep
by shearing Big Bill and Lill's sheep.
 So Hannah and Janna
were shipped to Montana.
At last! All the grown-ups can sleep.
