This is a story, I\'m not sure how it will end, my daughter asked \"couldn\'t you do a funny rhyme instead, does all your writing have be about an emotional state.\" 
 
 Here I go! This is for you both
 A favourite that I\'m sure you know
 
 Stick man! Oh Stick man
 Why did he hide there?
 Did he not see me
 With the stick munching pair? 
 
  If only he\'d stayed in his family tree
  I\'d not have to write his obituary
 
 Stick man! Oh Stick man 
 He was a loving stick
 Not afraid to bend yet still be stiff 
 Offer he\'s spear leaf to any friends 
 
 Through all kinds of weather 
 He\'d always make it home
 Until that day they found
 Him out on a stroll! 
 
 If only I\'d known it was you from the start
 I wouldn\'t have told them they can do what they want. 
 
 They understand some sticks are friends
 This is truly my fault for not checking in the first place. 
 
 Oh Stick man! Oh Stick man
 I\'m sorry my old friend 
 That it had to end
 Being ripped to shreds
 Once they pull you apart 
 Too tired playing chase 
 
 It was then that I noticed! hang on there is..... sorry, there was, only one stick that could be so strong. 
 
 By this time they were both jumping around, one playing with your head in its mouth, the other soon smiling away, bits spread all over the place. 
 
 Stick man! Oh Stick man
 I do thank you my friend 
 Never giving up till the very end
 
 After sending my blessing
 Knowing it was you
 My pair of munchers were 
 So awesomely chilled 
 
 So you can rest a bit easier 
 Knowing my arms didn\'t hurt
 I\'ve informed the family 
 You\'ll not be home for dessert. 
 
 The end
