    The Bothersome Tree Stump -Part 2

    Sheila Puppy’s journey began,
    With her first stop, MattyLand!
    And she quickly rushed to its ruler Matty!
    Who was sitting in a rather large throne-like chair.

    She explained to Matty the situation,
    Including how the stump was in a spot,
    Which was so perfect for so much other stuff!
    And then she made her request at last,
    To the great Matty who was listening so well,

    “Oh great Matty
    From the wonderful great MattyLand
    Do you have any expert movers
    Who could help us move
    This stump away!”

    Matty who was listening well
    Nodded their head well
    Then with a smile said

    “I have just the expert Mover your after
    Their name is Longnose the Purple!
    They are an elephant,
    And they know all about moving heavy stuff!
    Especially when its in a spot,
    That is most perfect for so much other stuff!”

    Sheila Puppy then wore
    Biggest smile you ever saw
    Without taking time to say goodbye
    She grabbed Longnose the Purple by the trunk
    And gently guided her on
    To the next destination…
    The Kingdom of Bedroom

    She had this before
    So she knew what to do!
    She requested an Audience
    To a rather Quacky Eyed duck,
    And after a wait,
    Which was quite long
    Her Highness showed up
    With trumpet sounds and all!

    Princess Nom Nom, Booksitting, Bagsleeping Fattycat Swishy Tail the first!
    Then began to speak with Sheila Puppy
    Who as always was nervous,
    But who wouldn’t be,
    When put in this situation
    Talking to a Princess Kitty cat…
    Who could be bossy and fussy!

    They spoke for a while
    The Princess Kitty Cat listened
    They spoke about tennis balls
    Things with bells and food!
    Then at last they spoke
    When they were all talked out,
    About the tree stump that needed moving
    Cause it was in a place most perfect
    For so much other stuff!

    Then finally when Sheila Puppy
    Had done telling her tale,
    She looked at the Princess
    And asked her so bravely!

    “Oh your highness…
    Do you know any expert movers…
    Who could help us move this stump away
    To some place very far away!”

    The Princess Kitty cat looked at her
    With a kind of blank face,
    She tilted her head and slowly stood
    Stretching as if she hadn’t moved in ages!

    “I will help you move that stump
    I, Princess Nom Nom Booksitting Bagsleeping Fattycat Swishytail the First!
    I am the smartest and best there is
    No one is more an expert than I
    At anything in this entire world!”

    And so Sheila Puppy,
    In a big rush
    Tugged on Longnose the Purples trunk
    She then with her other paw
    Tugged on her Royal Highness, the Princess Kittys paw
    And ran towards her next destination
    The great land of PigglyLot!
    Where one can get stuck
    Eating tasty things so fantastical!

    For you see Pigglylot
    Was ruled by Lord Pig Pig-a-lot!
    A Pig who liked eatingâ?¦ more than anyone!
    His kingdom was full of an assortment of food
    From the furtherest lands,
    And the closest to!

    Princess Nom Nom, Longnose the Purple and Sheila
    Arrived at Pigglylot, and rushed to its castle!
    Sheila Puppy had done this journey before,
    So she  made sure,
    To make Her Highness Princess Nom Nom wear a blindfold,
    So that no tasty things would slow them down at all!

    They quickly made there way,
    To Pigglylots ruler!
    They were granted an audience
    Which started with snorting!

    Lord Pig Pig-a-lot, listened,
    To Sheila talk about the stump
    Especially how it was in a spot
    That was most perfect for other stuff!

    “I know just the pig!
    Who can help you move that stump
    My brother, Lord Pig Dig-a-lot
    He can dig that right out!”

    Lord Pig Dig-a-lot,
    Just happened to be visiting his brother,
    So he was called by Lord Pig Pig-a-lot
    And explained the situation,
    He put his hoof up, and he nodded his head
    Then said excitedly,

    “I will help,
    Yes I will
    Any excuse to Dig
    Is an excuse that is for me!”

    Lord Pig Dig-a-Lot was in fact so excited,
    He picked up the whole group up,
    And carried them outside!
    And before Sheila puppy could suggest getting more help
    Lord Pig Dig-a-lot had carried them all the way back to Fort Goat!

    He was a rather strong pig,
    Probably from all the digging,
    That he did all day long!
    But the fact he could carry all three of them at once,
    Really was a rather amazing sight to see!

    But you know what was even more amazing…
    The fact Princess Nom Nom Booksitting Bagsleeping Fattycat Swishytail the First!
    Still had her blindfold on,
    AND HAD SLEPT THROUGH IT ALL!

    Prince Epic, Who may possibly a Moose,
    And the Honourable Queen Helen
    Were so glad to see Sheila Puppy returning,
    Though they were confused about why they were being carried by a pig!
    However they didn’t have time to ask questions,
    There was a stump needed moving!
