A Jill Nursery Rhyme

Did you read about me going up a hill, that was with Jack not with Bill. Guess you know my drill, "Jack and Jill" sure had a big thrill. My dear friend "Little Jack Horner," loved sitting in the corner. I wanted to be outside but he was a mourner, he would also read about being a foreigner. "Jack Be Nimble" was sure quick, our fun neighbor was never sick. Pretty candles he did pick, jumping high over the lit wick. "Jack Sprat" and his wife, she carried a big knife. He had no fat in his life, she had only lean with strife. Hope you have enjoyed reading about me, I am Jill and I want to be set free. Yes, on that hill I hurt my knee, that fall made me pee.
