For The Contest, “Jill Nursery Rhyme”
Sponsor, Charles Messina
Miss Jill was such a busy girl;
loved jumping rope that she would twirl.
One day her foot caught in the whirl
and down she went with a quick swirl.
But one, two three- she got up fast!
Along came Jack, who quickly asked;
“Since you're okay, let's try at last
to gather water like the past!”
“Oh no,” said Jill- “that hill's too steep;
and now this rope just tripped my leap!
Tomorrow- some new fun I'll reap
and walk the meadow with the sheep!”
And so, Jill had the greatest time;
no rope to jump or hill to climb.
The church bells played a lovely chime
while she held tiny lambs- sublime!
