Sad Old Humpty Dumpty

They tried to put him back together
After his untimely fall.
All the vast resources of
The kingdom were employed.
But every effort, bold and noble,
All that medicine could muster
Could not bring him to the state
Of happiness he once enjoyed.
He was such a jolly elf,
Rollie-pollie out to play.
Filled with tireless energy,
Bounding through the fields all day.
He was merely resting when
He climbed that fateful wall.
Never saw it coming
When succumbing to his fall.
And even though he did survive
With help from horse and men,
Sad old Humpty Dumpty
Was never the same again.
