Alternative - Bawdy

I once knew a teen on Shannon Street Who spent lots of time beating his meat Until he met a genteel girl, Who took him out for little whirl And he found out what she did was neat. written September 27, 2021

Oh my goodness! This IS bawdy! Really BAW-dy! Thanks for the warning. I see that Jan and I ran right to it though.

This one (the whole thing) came to me as I was driving somewhere this afternoon, so I had to keep repeating Shannon Street until I got home and wrote it down. Hey, it is pretty cool for a limerick!

Thanks, Jan. I wouldn't have put it on Poetry Soup without the warning! I would have been crucified! And, I wouldn't understand the big deal, since it's a common occurrence, right?
