A Most Neglected Limb

A most neglected of limbs is the wrist 
  Next to a place where ladies still get kissed
    Smack dab on dainty hand
    Is where smooches do land                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
  Hard bony wrists are just not in demand

How true and humerous at the same time. Sara says it was that first kiss on her hand that sealed the deal. :-). I was just being gentle, but it really paid off. Thanks for sharing your gift of poetry with us, Gershon. Got to run, she's ringing the supper bell. Bill

You are right. This isn't the Palace in Austria, is it?! I remember Menachem Begin doing it, although his lips froze on Nancy Reagan's wrist. lol. Thanks, Kim.

Hi Gershon, How about when I broke my wrist, and my hand orthopedic surgeon put my tattoo back together again like a jig saw puzzle. Great surgeon and person. Lady J - NO BONY WRISTS! HUGS, BLESSINGS JENNIFER.
