A Young Lass Named Mary

There once was a young lass named Mary,
Whose lips were as sweet as a cherry.
Boys lined up to kiss her,
But then they dismissed her,
Cause Mary was just too darn hairy!

Way to go on the contest, Kim! Mary should have 'brushed' up on her kissing beforehand. Good one.

I really liked this one a lot. If you had thought of a different rhyme to go with "her" I 'd have maybe given it first place!! Congrats, Kim and thanks for joining the contest.

That's why they make razors and shaving cream. Good humorous limerick, Kim.
