A Regular Hoot

Hortense Halle was a regular hoot
She bought herself a new cottontail suit
   Hula hoop earrings
   A pair of pink wings
She never did fly ~ but boy, was she cute

At least she was all, fancied up! Though I am sure not flying was a disappointment, it would disappoint me. Enjoyed, good Limerick!

Man does she ever sound like all that and a bowl of chips! I would love to see a photo of Hortense.
