Retired Ram

There once was a ram who retired, who really was terribly tired. Having serviced the lot, he should have have been shot. But the gun thankfully backfired.

This is such a cute Limrick Jean. He looks the part doesn't he? My aunt and I were so delighted when sheep blocked the road and we had to wait until they went around our rental car. Believe it or not that is the one thing that I wanted to have happen while in Ireland. I love animals and I had my camera right there hanging out the window taking their picture like a silly goof. I loved your clever Limerick Jean! 7 ; )

This can only mean you know a thing or two in the luv department Arthur. I certainly hope your equiptment is nothing like the neighbour's that inspired this poem. A bit like my plumer's hose, that would scare me to death.
