Notes About The Poem

     Bawdy or Funny Limerick Contest

A Bawdy Limerick Failure

Tried to write a limerick that's bawdy
The naughty kind that sex would embody
With each attempt I failed
While another prevailed
Compared to Jan's, mine was just plain shoddy

I am so thrilled with my first place from you, Tania. It wasn't easy to keep from telling Jan what I'd written, but the fun was waiting for her to react to it. Thanks so much sponsoring your creative contests. Hugs.

Fun way to express frustration. It's hard for me to think of bawdy themes

Andrea, I'm going to blame Jan for the limericks I write. She's brought me over to the smelly side of toilet humor.

Jan does seem to have the edge on that. This is a great write about the attempt and has great flow. :)

I'll not rumble with Jan in the ring about limericks. Her punch would knock me out. Thanks, Eileen and it's nice to see you!

Thanks. Jan and I go all the way back to day 1 of me entering the kitchen. Tania is also my poetic sister. Hugs to both of them.

Thank you, David. Jan and I have had sort of a sisterhood relationship from way back when I first joined. I'm pleased you like my idea of 'not so bawdy' but fun in this one.
