DISCLAIMER: I do not own Barney, Teletubbies, Kim Possible or the authors mentioned. I do however own a lamb.
AN: This is purely for fun, and I want to say right now that I do not mean any offence to the authors implied. They are not horrible people; I'm the terrible one because this poem would NOT leave me alone. This was written in reference to a forum conversation in the Kim Possible section. The Fannie Awards (like Kim Possible Fan Fiction Oscars) are being organized and people are planning their dates. I'm a part time Sheppard by profession and the award ceremony would be in my peak lambing period. If this year is anything like last year, I'll have a flock of tame lambs at my disposal and jokingly told the organizers of the event that I might bring one along. What followed were the obvious remarks of lambs being eaten with various seasonings. I do not eat lamb. I'm a vegetarian. I had jokingly warned my fellows that if anybody mentioned anything about Mint Sauce and Lamb Roast they would be send to teletubbie land. Needless to say. They did.

Silence for the Lamb
Over the
hills in a land far away,
Two authors awoke, completely astray.
They blinked at each other, and blinked at the land.
And
blinked even more when they saw a cute lamb.
A woman
approached, her hair in a braid,
And smiled to them saying: "You
should be afraid."
Mystified and boggled, they stared at each
other,
Then motioned to the lamb and said:
"Do we know one
another?"
The woman
sniffed and called to the lamb,
Then picked it up when it came to
her hand.
"My name is Alyssa, and you pushed me too far,
By
making fun of my lamb, so I've raised the bar,
a day in my mind
you'll have to stay,
And with some Teletubbies you're gonna
play."
They
looked at each other and pushed themselves up.
One held out his
hand and said: "I'm Captain, What's up?"
"I'm Mike,"
said the other. "And this is too weird.
Why should we be afraid?
She's all alone here."
Alyssa merely smiled and pulled up a
chair.
The little lamb, excited, bound up with flair!
She pushed
up her glasses and opened a book,
Her one hand lightly resting on
a shepparding crook.
"Just wait and see," she said with a
smile.
"Then sun should be up, in just a little while."
She
patted the lamb and gave it a mint,
Her greenish eyes shining
with an evil glint.
The two
shook their heads and laughed out loud.
"This is ridiculous,"
Mike said. "And that's not allowed!
A lamb should be seasoned
with mint and jelly.
Certainly not treated as if it's in front
of the Telly."
The lamb looked affronted and let out a "baa".
Though Mike didn't hear, his attention afar.
The first
rays of the sun, touched the land of green.
And then, out of the
blue, an intercom could be seen:
"Time for Teletubbies!" It
announced to the audience.
"Time for Teletubbies!" Alyssa
covered her ears, experienced.
The two authors, undeterred, stood
up tall and proud.
They didn't think it was scary, just a
little loud.
And then
the earth shook, and the sun giggled warm,
Four faces appeared,
their costumes a little worn.
For out they jumped, with
Tinky-Winky in front.
And Dipsy to follow, his antenna quite
blunt.
Then Laa-Laa and Po, their little faces grim.
As they
dragged out dear Barney, by his tail so slim.
With the
five now assembled, they let out a cheer,
Barney pointing first:
"Our friends are here!"
They charged up the hill, to where
the authors stood still,
Mike leaned over to Captain and said:
"Are we ready for the kill?"
They charged down to meet them,
their battle cries loud.
And didn't think for once they were
outnumbered by the crowd.
The
carnage was brutal, even Alyssa did flinch,
For Barney grabbed
Captain in a cuddly pinch.
The dinosaur lifted the man from the
ground,
And gave him a hug saying: "Oh I'm so proud!"
Mike
fared no better, paralyzed by song,
And oh did they scream when
it became a sing-a-long!
Bless the
dear boys, they tried to fight back,
But the children's brigade
was not done with their attack.
They danced and they pranced and
they tossed them about,
Until they were yelling: "Please let us
out!"
They shouted and kicked and pulled out their hair,
But
when they looked at Alyssa she said: "I don't care."
So they
rallied their forces, to make a last stand,
And tried to run away
from the little singing band.
"We should've brought weapons!"
Mike yelled out in fear.
Captain replied simply: "I wish Kim
Possible was here!"
They looked round for back up, but no one
was at hand.
Except of course, for Alyssa, and her little cute
lamb.
The battle
raged on all through the day,
until even the Teletubbies were
tired of play.
Then finally, exhausted the authors fell at her
feet.
Alyssa looked up from her book and smiled, oh so sweet.
She shoed off the sheep and held out her hand,
Then said
quite politely: "Are you going to be nice to my lamb?"
