Murder Mystery
At midnight on Monday malice occurred.
Marsha was out by the marsh when she heard
Mona was screaming, then moaning, it stopped.
Marsha decided she must call the cops.
The cops asked twice if Mona was moaning.
Marsha replied, maybe it was snoring.
In court, the attorneys made the case
Mona died instantly by the marks on her face.
Evidence of bruising when she fell face down
Money was missing and poison was found.
Marsha admitted money was all she could think
when she offered her a mimosa, her favorite drink.
