Image Limerick

A little bird came and sat on down
Suddenly it had a sort of frown
On a clay sewer pipe
Next with its little might
Gifted the world a clover leaf crown.

Dearest Mark,

If you change one word to an "N" (the first letter in this line)

A little bird came and sat on down
Suddenly it had a sort of frown
On a clay sewer pipe
(Then with its little might) instead of "then" use "Now"
Gifted the world a clover leaf crown.

reading vertically the first letter of each line would spell out A SONG! just a suggestion to think over.

much love, Cat

Yes!

That would be cool huh? Not perfect cuz there would be a tense problem:

Now (present)

Gifted (past)

I think I'll keep it as is though unless there is another N word for Now.

Thanks Cat 💕

On another note: We all need to keep in mind, for the time being, that the site is in Beta stage.

I hadn't noticed that the first four letters spell out song, a very clever limerick, we all need a little luck. Great job and good luck with the contest! If you have time please read mine!
