Forgotten Feminist

Lucretia Mott
The meeker sex, she was not!
At the convention in Seneca Falls
Showed men aren't the only ones with balls!

Well it was more that she was a speaker/preacher when women almost never did that - glad you like it!

1st prize winner! This clerihew really nails the contest's challenge, Michelle! It's educational --- Who'd ever heard of Lucretia Mott? (I'm serious) --- and outragiously funny as well. It can't miss, methinks. A FAVE for me. Bravo! :)
