A poem by Elizabeth Turner

Isabella's Parachute

________________________________________________
Title:     Isabella's Parachute
Author: Elizabeth Turner [More Titles by Turner]

Once as little Isabella
Ventured, with a large umbrella,
Out upon a rainy day,
She was nearly blown away.

Sadly frighten'd then was she,
For 'twas very near the sea,
And the wind was very high,
But, alas! no friend was nigh.

Luckily, her good mamma
Saw her trouble from afar;
Running just in time, she caught her
Pretty little flying daughter.


Note.--This story recalls the adventures of Robert at the end of Struwwelpeter. Robert, however, was not caught.
