Huckleberry Finn-Revised
Note-We live and learn. My first entry in Andrea's contest missed the boat for failing to use a fictitious character and a rhyming word. You see, at times, my boat is a speedboat---that is filled with inattention, clumsiness, and lack of knowledge of the rules. But after reading the winners' list, I got the hang of how to do a clerihew. Yeah! I'm happy. I found a lifeboat.
A mischievous kid, this Huckleberry Finn
His moral compass pointed to a major sin
For helping his friend Joe escape slavery
Society at the time looked at him as unsavory
