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!

I am loving these cleirhews for Andrea's challenge! I am having to compile a reading list! I have to go and find out what Ms. Mott did/said at the convention!!! -- Well done. Best of luck in the contest!

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! :)

Exactly - that's why she's the forgotten feminist! Thanks for making it a Fave!
