JACK AND JILL REVISITED
When Jack and Jill went up the hill
Jack forgot about the water.
"We've got no bucket,
Jilly! F***it!"
Jill said, "you didn't oughta
Use such language!". So she sulked
While Jack sat and adored her.
Only someone seeing her face
Could tell how much he bored her.
The moral of this tale is clear
If love is to be sought, a
Lasting relationship requires
A bucket full of water.
(With thanks to Tess at Magpie Tales)
... and a whole lot of other 'stuff.'
ReplyDeleteHa ha! Right up my street!
ReplyDeleteHaha so cute! I got the same impression that he liked her more than she liked him
ReplyDeleteTrue! Your Mags are always a breath of fresh air. But what chance has Jack got wearing a nerdy yellow vest like that?

ReplyDeleteWas the good Doctor seeing double? I love the Jack and Jill theme. No other blogger seems to have seen it that way.
ReplyDeleteTrellissimo I think it unlikely any other blogger usually sees Magpie through the same original eyes that Frances has.
ReplyDeleteShe does look a sulky madam.
ReplyDeleteShe does seem a bit sulky here. The ending is quite a treat. So that's the secret to a successful relationship :)
ReplyDeleteHa ha!
ReplyDeleteIf there had been a bucket, she might have poured the water over his head to shake him up a bit...
ReplyDeleteI'm with Jinsky on this one!
ReplyDeleteLove it :-) x
ReplyDeleteThanks for a morning laugh! Wouldn't that be great if that was all it took?
ReplyDeleteI noticed the hill but never made the Jack and Jill connection. This is why you, Frances, are rich and I am not.
ReplyDeleteOh again, this was just too much fun! Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteI laughed and laughed!
