CDVII - Schoolgirl



Red Dirt Girl sent me this photo.  
My original intention was to do a limerick 
but things sort of got extended.

The Schoolgirl

In a school room,
Was a girl, whom
Didn’t learn the things she ought;
Late, as a rule,
She acted the fool
And her skirt was far too short.

Her lack of attention
Got her detention
And a corner, in which she was seated,
But she enjoyed the pain
Of a well applied cane
So her homework was never completed.

  5. She was definitely pretending the role of a fool, thereby getting what she wanted. The rules worked in her favor, which does not happen for us all.
