Who are the characters? Well, there's Goldi,
Papa, Mama and the Baby Bear only
What happened? Goldilocks went into a home
That she didn't live in and she was alone.
She ate food, broke a chair, then fell asleep,
The three bears came home and pretty much freaked.
Goldilocks woke up and took off running,
That's what happened in the story, keep 'em coming.
When did it happen? Once upon a time, kid.
Where? In a forest that was oh-so-quiet.
Why was Baby Bear so upset?
'Cause Goldi ate his porridge and slept in his bed.
Why did Goldilocks run off with a shriek?
Because she was scared, but you don't have to be
If you ask...
