Notes About The Poem

A Stone Age Transport Woe

Wilma cried, “We are going too slow!”
But poor Flintstone could no faster go.
Not because of a flat. 
No, for nothing like that.
It was just Fred had stubbed his big toe!

Limericks are fun, and clean ones are worth the effort both to write and then to read. Andrea's regaled us with another rhyme. How on earth does she find the time? Life and all its daily struggle, yet somehow she's learned to juggle. To stop her now would be a crime.
