A Sting In the Tale

Old hillbilly Huck was no prude; He picknicked outside in the nude. But a bee left a sting On his ding-a-ling-ling And neighbours heard something quite rude! 23.05.19 Syllable count : 88668 Bawdy Limerick Contest - Let's Keep It Pg-13 Poetry Contest Sponsored by Tania Kitchin Brevity Poetry Contest No More Than Six Lines Poetry Contest- Caren Krutsinger
