Nursery Rhyme Redo: Little Jack Horner

Little Jack Horner - All Grown Up

Little Jack Horner alone in the corner
Regretting his recent lie
He tippled his rum - said what have I done
I'll be in this mess til I die

  3. Hi Linda .. great fun poem .. and thanks for coming over to the blog - really good to see you and now I've subscribed again - I had a frothy when I was ill in the A - Z and cancelled loads of RSSs .. saying to myself - you'll catch your tail .. well I still haven't done so - but at least I've found you again now.

    Good to be back in touch .. cheers Hilary

  4. Katherine- Glad I could make you laugh.

    Talon- Hmmm, maybe we should stay away from plums.

    Hilary- Thanks. It's good to see you again, too. I know that sometimes things get overwhelming. Thanks for resubscribing.
