Gershon Wolf Poet Limerick

At Porky Pig's Roast

Horrible Hattie had seen her own ghost
While chomping away at Porky Pig's Roast --
   She turned wan and pale
   Downed a mug of ale --
Her translucence scared Petunia the most

Hattie staggered to her feet, looked around
The room was whirling, at times upside down --
   As she started to speak
   Her teeth rattled, 'Eek 'Eek' --
Porky's wife shrieked and ran straight out of town




Note: Petunia Pig is Porky's wife. lol.

Sandra Adams June 29, 2020 at 12:42 PM poor porky... and petunia she's probably scarred for life... lol, good write! Gershon Wolf June 29, 2020 at 3:47 PM Yes, yes. Petunia is currently being treated for PTSD around-the-clock by a team of experts, but Porky's confided to me that the prospects for her return to good mental health is bleak... So Porky's got a 'new normal!' lol. Thanks, Sandra!

Tom Cunningham June 29, 2020 at 3:14 AM Haha grunt grunt, nicely done Gershon. Tom Gershon Wolf June 29, 2020 at 3:45 PM Do pigs 'grunt' in England? Over here in America they say 'Oink.' They're silent in Israel. (Ha, ha: They're not kosher over there... although there are a few of them anyway). Cheers, Gershon
