“The Stumble and Rise” Poetry Contest Limerick poetry form Sponsored by: Jami Patterson
This is my tale of stumble and rise Which I have say, took me by surprise I shed a few tears On hearing the cheers My heart was simply bursting with pride. There was I, dancing along the street Singing and swanking upon my feet I got in a fix O'er my feet I tripped And cartwheeled down hill like an athlete. Unaware I'd performed to a crowd Till I’d heard them cheering me out loud After the stumble I rose most humble And grateful, so I stood there and bowed.
