Miss Adventure

Miss Adventure liked to be doing some activity Climbing in the tallest tree or swimming underneath the sea Up a mountain, in a cave, doing something really brave On a surf board where she’ll crave the fullest and the fastest wave. Sometimes flying in the sky, leaping out... why o why? All that daring-do... or die, isn’t something I would try Steep, and yet we know she’ll cope, as she climbs the rocky slope At the top, with faith and hope, leaps with an elastic rope Speeding at a manic pace, as we humans race the race To a very distant place, she’s the face of outer space NASA said at Ursa Centra, no way back from where we’ve sent ya Were that me I’d lose my denture, but then my name’s not Miss Adventure

Thanks Jan. I seem to be creating something of a series of Mr and Miss tales. Can’t think why no one’s done it already (gulp!) Terry
