A Les Mis Poem


By Christa

I will tell you the story of Les Mis
What a wonderful story that it is
It starts off with a man named Jean Valjean
To eat he steals bread even though it's wrong
Off to catch Jean Valjean is Javert
he is an inspector with very dark hair

There is a nice lady named Fantine
She's the poorest person that I seen
She's forced to give up her daughter Cosette
To the Thénardiers who she just met
Not knowing that they were mean
she earned money any way she seen

Jean Valjean became very rich
He had to obey Fantine's dying wish
With him he let little Cosette stay
After Fantine passed away
Cosette grew beautiful you see
And fell in love with Marius Pontmercy

Eponine fell in love with Marius too
But he loved Cosette what could she do
Marius called Cosette on the telephone
So Eponine was all on her own
There were no phones in Les Mis time
I only said that so it would rhyme

The people of France built a Barricade
out of all sort of stuff it was made
Out of chairs, wagons wheels, and other things
They did this to fight against the king
They stole every gun that they saw
Enjoras was in charge of it all
Javert they planned to kill him he'd be long gone
And to do this task was Jean Valjean
But Jean Valjean spared Javert's life
And this caused Javert a lot of strife
And so Javert wanted to die
He jumped in the river and said good-bye

After the Barricade was fought
Marius and Cosette tied the knot
Jean Valjean eventually died
This made Cosette and Marius cry
But he lived his life and was very old
And Now the story of Les Mis is told.
