One starry night

Jack and Jill reached quite a height

On a hill

Where Jack fell in front of Jill.

The police came

Accompanied by an old gossiping dame.

She hadn't seen the crime

On the hill covered with grime.

The dame hadn't seen Jack's attacker,

As the night was becoming blacker.

But the dim-witted dame,

Pointed on Jill, who was not to blame.

The police also not very clever,

Wanted Jill behind the bars forever.

They wanted the case to end

As they didn't have much time to spend.

Jill started to wail

But to no avail.

The police arrested her,

And everyone thought how foolish they were.

Behind the bars she went

And dreamt of days happily spent.

She then called for a detective

Who, according to her, was introspective.

The detective was now hired

On 100 pounds a day.

He went home

And had fun in every possible way.

Occasionally, the detective examined the case

With very little difficulties to face.

He, then at last, put his thoughts in front on Jill

With the total of them not more than nil.

He asked, "Was it a conspiracy

Or just a mere discrepancy?"

"Was the old gossiping dame

Behind this game?"

"Was this all you could think?"

Asked Jill with an incredulous blink.

Jill thought, "Were my hundreds of pounds wasted

In him having his pleasures tasted?"

She screamed in a thunderous voice

Which was not usually nice

"Even a wimp could think

As much of the case you could link!"

She slapped him hard and told me

"I think it's hard for someone as dim as him

To solve a case so grim.

I think it's time that you find

Who was the mastermind?"
