Book of Scarborians VII

Parsley, Sage, and Ty

reached the Scarborough fairgrounds.

Wading through a crowd

the authorities addressed,

"If you see the missing heir,

please notify us."

Sage bent her ear to listen

but Ty pulled her arm.

"Let's check out the art," they said

while Parsley's nose pined for food.

Ty moved with such haste

that they crashed into a man

who dropped a canvas.

A woman yelled, "Stop that man!

He stole my niece’s painting!"

Then the thief struggled,

but Ty and Sage were stronger.

"Let me go!" He raged.

When the authorities came,

Ty hid in the gallery.
