~a limerick

To the girl with the glowing red hair,
The people would constantly stare.
They’d clamor and shout,
"Turn that ruby light out!"
So, she’d add to that glow a harsh glare.
Then she, with the fiery mat,
And skin that was pale and quite flat,
Just pouted. Then teased,
"Okay fine, as you please."
And she covered her hair with a hat.

Then the people, in desperate plight,
Were shocked at the downtrodden sight!
So, the request they repealed.
"Let your hair be revealed!"
"It provides us with such rosy light!"
