The More Cooks the Worse Potage-W

I heard a saying long before Too many cooks spoil the broth sure I think it proves right With one another they fight The man dodges or they little to share. ------------------------------------------- Ninth Placement Contest: To die for Limericks

Hi, Dr. Ram. Good entry. You are very versatile in a number of forms. To have a man of your learning like anything I write is a great honor. I am. Regards, Gerard.

hi, Dr. Ram, is this for a contest? I agree with the message of this limerick. I hate too many cooks in my kitchen! SAy, I just soupmailed you. I was calling Goddess of the Night by a different name. Everytime I say the title La LUna in your soupmal, I was referring to Goddess of the NIght, which did not get entered in your contest but in another one instead. Hope that makes sense to you. I'll see you. Andrea

Nicely written Limerick, Dr. Ram! Wish you good luck with this one in the contest. We've got a similar saying in German: Viele Koeche verderben den Brei!" (Too many cooks will spoil the porridge)..Thank you for your kind comment and have a nice week!...Gert
