One dark stormy night
Harry Potter lay awake
When the door pounded loudly
And started to shake.
His uncle shouted
"Now you go away!"
The giant of a man
Had something to say.
"My name is Hagrid
And I've brought you a treat."
But soon a tail soon adorned
Cousin Dudley's pajama seat.
"Harry, you're a wizard,"
By Hagrid he was told
While finally his past
Began to unfold.
“Your mum and dad
Were killed one night
Fighting honorably
For that which is right.
“Your letter is here
An invitation of sorts
To attend a school
By the name of Hogwarts.
“I'll take you shopping
For what you will need
Your wand and your cauldron
And spell books to read.
"Those clothes you are wearing
Will simply not do.
So a trip to Madame Malkin’s
Is in order, too."
They shopped for hours
Then Hagrid gave him a ticket
"Mind you don't lose it;
In a safe place stick it."
Then he said farewell
And in a flash he was gone.
Harry was left waiting
For September 1st's dawn.
A/N: Thank you to my beta Arnel.
