In a nursery rhyme there is a fiddling cat who played while a cow jumped over the moon Try, if you can, to imagine the sight of that. And how can a dish run away with a spoon? I tried to put pajamas on Snowy, my kitty. Her claws dug into my skin like they were roots. My pj cat ran away. What a pity. I should trade her in for Puss In Boots May 21, 2017 Juvenilia Contest Written at age 10.

Thanks so very much, Sandra. I wish I still had my handwritten pages like you do, but I've no idea what happened to so many of my things from days gone by.

Jan, I actually recieved two Poo poems. One made round two... I shouldn't say any more, except the N/A doesn't always mean I didn't like it. It usually means I have lots of choice...
