Birds and Bees

At church, young niece asked me in a blink

What mating meant with a curious wink

    “It's a  bird-and-bee's dream

      For girls who reach  sixteen”

Pined she,” that’s not what my classmates think”

YOur limerick is very witty and clever, Nette. If it had the perfect meter I was looking for, it would have scored super high!! Congrats on your win in my contest.

This one is too cute. Often when they ask it's because they have already heard things at school. Good one Nette. God Bless, JB

ha ha, that is quite funny Nette, "that's not what my classmates think" is a great and humorous line! It's true, when they are young, they have an innocence with their questions, but then you find out...they know more than what you expected! It always seems to happen! This is a wonderful write based on these interesting questions! Great Work!!

She probably just wanted to see how much you didn't know if this is true. They know more than my comfort zone allows! I like!
