FOUR JACKS AND A JILL

Jack, Jack, Jack and jack, what about me, my name is Jill I’m only mentioned once, when we climbed up the hill , Then Jack fell, and broke his crown, I was filled with dread, So tumbled after him, but he had gone to bed, To bandage his head. Jack Sprat and his wife, one ate no fat and the other no lean, So hence left their platter void of food and always clean, So, I suggested to his wife to keep slim, to do some running Down the street, to lose the weight She ate. And Jack Horner who only sat in a corner, I felt that was cruel, Told him to tell his teacher that he would quit school, He was never again, to be made a fool. As for Jack be nimble, I mentioned that as he was always quick, I would nurse him if he broke his ankle jumping over the candle wick, So now I no longer feel a little jealous, as I have taken Charles's tip, I tried to help the first Jack, but did get involved with the other three, I now feel good, my name is Jill and I hope you agree. Now give me a giggle, Hey diddle diddle Competition entry:Jill Nursery Rhyme Poetry Concert Sponsor:Charles Messina Date; 03/11/2024
