It walked along a Raspberry Trail The ground was laced with red Crimson spilled on the snow in dots Leading behind a pine tree Becoming a Raspberry Trail
Hiding behind a snow covered tree It looked for victims for its game And its eyes landed on a little girl Playing in the snow
Just near the Raspberry Trail
Raspberry Trail
By Marie Romano
The echo of laughter filled its head
The joy the little girl had
Was something it could never bare
So the creature snatched her away like a crow with its prey
Pulling her on the Raspberry Trail
Soon the sun will set
Leaving the trail behind
‘Her parents will look for her’ the creature thought
So it dragged her body away
And created another Raspberry Trail
