    Jack and Jill in Training 

Jack and Jill made a training bill 
Climb some hills and gain some new skills 

Run two miles before the wind whiles 
Early up ahead of the sun 

Easy start longer hills a part 
Jack and Jill loved climbing the hills 

Then one day learned enough make hay 
Small mountain they could climb, certain 

Jack and Jill they climbed that big hill 
Jack fell down and Jill broke her crown

 - I am linked with Rosemary for Friday Writing #111 at 
 - I am also linked before with Lillian of dVerse Poetics at 
 - Rosemary has asked, "If you were to come back as a ghost after you die, what place or person would you most like to haunt – er, revisit?
 - Lillian has asked us to "write a poem that is a prequel to a particular character from a nursery rhyme, aesop’s fable, book, or mythology. See explanation in prompt above. Be sure it’s clear in the poem, who you’re writing about."  For Friday Writings using the prompt is optional, we can instead post a poem previously written or written one off prompt.  I had previously written this poem for Lillian above.   
   You can see that I used a prequel to Jack and Jill of the nursery poem with that name, "Jack and Jill", who climbed the hill but then they fell back down after they had gotten up their hill. The Prequel is usually telling of some events prior, even leading up, to the main story writing, i.e. the Nursery Rhyme here.
