L Milton Hankins Poet Limerick

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.

Caren Krutsinger September 27, 2021 at 9:33 PM Oh my goodness! This IS bawdy! Really BAW-dy! Thanks for the warning. I see that Jan and I ran right to it though.

Hey, it is pretty cool for a limerick!

Jan Allison September 27, 2021 at 4:26 PM ha ha ha so glad you said it was bawdy lol:-) hugs Jan xx L Milton Hankins September 27, 2021 at 5:33 PM 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?
