Prunes and Other Things

There once was a man who ate nothing but prunes He was broke and howled at the moon He was desperate for work And got some soon Blowing up air ballons. There was a man from pakistan Who owned an old ice cream van But the ice cream melted in the sun Poor man And now he sells burgers in a bun. There was an elephant called peek a boo Who escaped from a zoo It didn't take long to trace him Just am hour or two They just followed a trail of giant poo. There was a hedgehog who married a frog They tried to mate but it hurt too much and fell of the log So the hedgehog took off his pricly coat And now they have seven little hedgefrogs That live on a boat. There was a bear who loved Fred Astaire Who danced here and danced there He stole clothes from a washing line He looked a treat in ladies pink panties and tutu Hey bear give them back there mine!.

Oh Peter, I had never seen these limericks of yours yet. Was thinking of you and feeling bad about having to withdraw myself from that writing group, and thought, gosh, when was the last time I paid peter a visit here at SOUP? Please come visit me here once in a while. Maybe you are just really busy at the other place. Anyway, I sure enjoyed these fun animal poems!
