"Jill's Lament"
Dear brother Jack's still tucked in bed,
unconscious from the fall.
My advice to those who love their heads:
beware of hills and walls.
Does Humpty Dumpty ring a bell?
He too impaired his crown.
But oh!--much worse, much worse he fell,
says every knight in town.
My sympathies to the goodly egg,
but Jack moves more my heart.
Oh Mother Goose, of you I beg,
rewrite my brother's part!
Let not him tumble carelessly,
make flat that horrid hill--
and if need be, do this for me:
let Jack swap roles with Jill!
Just a super brief ballad on a rather familiar subject. =)
Enjoy! ;3
You've really been drumming up my confidence lately, Shine! I just...don't know what to say, man. I'm happy for sure though! (>.<)
And why am I not published? Well...I guess I'm the one to blame for that; I haven't been very assertive with the matter...for some reason. But I'd like to be published one day! That'd be nice. ^^

This is really sweet and so damn good. Why are you not published! Start submitting these! You could be so popular as a poet!
