The Cookie Fortress

In a bustling bakery on Christmas Eve

The cookies were baked and set to achieve.

But outside the window a mischief arose

As birds with sweet teeth sniffed with their nose.

Oh gingerbread houses with walls so sweet

Built to defend the cookie fleet!

Candy cane fences a sugary moat

Keeping the bakery's treasures afloat!

The baker said "Quick we need a plan

To outsmart the sparrows as fast as we can!"

With icing and gumdrops they started to build

A house of defense where cookies were filled.

Oh gingerbread houses with walls so sweet

Built to defend the cookie fleet!

Candy cane fences a sugary moat

Keeping the bakery's treasures afloat!

The birds took flight but they couldn't invade

The gingerbread fortress that bakers had made.

With gumdrop guards and a licorice door

The cookies stayed safe like never before!

Oh gingerbread houses with walls so sweet

Built to defend the cookie fleet!

Candy cane fences a sugary moat

Keeping the bakery's treasures afloat!

So next time you see that gingerbread home

Remember its tale of cookies alone.

A fortress of sugar a Christmas delight

Born from a battle on a snowy night!
