ANDY THE ARMADILLO
In Texas town where sun brightly shone, Andy the dillo lives, all alone. He dreamt of a pretty gal, one who lives in his locale. Together the dusty trails they’d roam When pillaging one starry night he met Astrid, "Oh! you're outta sight" A quizzical nose had she “You're perfect dillo for me! Let’s eat worms together, they’re a delight!" With a twirl and a tap of her toes, she showed dance moves that she knows. 'round and 'round she did spin, with giggles and a grin. Then he noticed her rather large schnoz. “EEEGADS! Where did you get that nose? With it, the ground you can bulldoze You’re a dillo extraordinaire. I’ll follow you anywhere. Let’s go get some worms at Joe’s!”

Adorable, and then some. This limerick is so cute, I could pinch its cheeks. ~ Gershon

well, thank you kindly, sir. Writing limericks is not my strong suit so I'm glad you found this one cute! Pinching an armadillo's cheeks might be a bit painful, though :-) Yellow Rose

Joe had never seen such a long nose - Asked Astrid how she got one of those - I was hung out to dry - That is the reason why - My mother is to blame I suppose…… Beryl
