All about me & my little ABC mixup once upon a time.. ;)
The Missing Minnow by JPilcher
ABC Poetry Contest contest entry

Laid out on the floor, all sprawled, my brand new "ABC" cards & little 'ole me.
My sisters, nowhere to be found, not like I actually needed their help anyhow.
Not more than 4 or 5 years old, but already knew my ABC's, so this was easy!
Over & again though at a point, I sat there stuck, staring puzzled at my cards.
That's the day I learned that "minnow" wasn't what came before the letter "P".

Author Notes
My step mom, who was the one that finally found me sitting there on the floor very much confused (& likely ready to cry thinking I was missing a card from my brand new deck!) - she LOVES telling this story to this very day!! :)
