Little Jack Horner

Mother Goose had a mighty fine pie
And Jack Horner she couldn’t deny
When he stuck in his thumb
Mother Goose did succumb
So she left Father Goose bye and bye

Thanks for the comment. My wife hated this one and did not think it should have been written much less shared on a website.

Thanks Andrea. I was hoping it was not too over the top for the contest.
