Jack and Jill

The Rest of the Story Poetry Contest
Sponsored by: Miranda Hawley

1st place




Jack and Jill went up the hill
At school, this is what we were taught
But abruptly, Jack proposed Jill with a rose
Jill rejected it after a deep thought.
Respecting each other’s view		
Their friendship they tried to renew
As true friends they lived their lives ever after.

At least in your version they remained friends after deciding to NOT marry each other. Congrats on your win in my contest.
