Three Little Monkeys

There were three little monkeys, Named Mindy, Murray and Moe, And everywhere they went, They put on a little show. Mindy was a dancer, And she was very good. She danced like a ballerina, Then tap-danced where she stood. Murray was a tumbler, He jumped and flipped about. The children really liked it, And were quick to clap and shout. Moe juggled apples, Sometimes oranges, too. He used his hands and his tail - What a funny thing to do! When the three little monkeys, Had finished with their show, The children cheered and clapped, For Mindy, Murray and Moe. 4/19/21 For Eve Roper's Nursery Rhyme 5 contest

this is one of the best ones I have seen . It's got good meter and is what would be interesting to a kid if his mom were reading to him. Did you know Eve is gonna make a book of our entries in her contests? She will sell it a very good price, so watch for that! (I had a little plan in the back of my mind to do a foodie book on YOUR favorite contest form, but not all the letters have food represented!!!) I thought it'd look cool with illustrations and recipes!!

Now this is a very cleverly written poem. I was never a big fan of children's material, but this is one of the best efforts I've ever seen on this site.
