Juvenilia - My First Limerick

Some children sat down on the floor. They sat till their bottoms were sore. “We could each take a chair,” said one boy sitting there. “So then what are we waiting for?” For the Juvenilia Contest of Cecelia Hopkins-Drewer Note: Around age 10 or 11, I had a teacher who taught us about limericks. I really loved it and had never written anything creative to my knowledge before that day. I have been searching my house to see if I kept my very first poem in any of my scrapbooks, but I must not have. I have had this little poem in my memory ever since that time, but am not exactly sure how I did my line 2, so I've created a new line two, though I don't think I was talking about "bottoms" in the fifth grade yet!
