Gershon Wolf Poet Limerick

Boys' Taste Buds Get Refined

So many boys just cannot stand carrots
Orange veggie sticks for them have no merit
   But as their eyesight declines
   Their taste buds get more refined
Orange eye candy's sweet ~ They can stare at it

Caren Krutsinger December 17, 2019 at 5:15 PM Hilarious to me as the opossums and the raccoons have put their snooty snouts up at the cup of carrots I left out on the front porch a week ago. Gershon Wolf December 17, 2019 at 5:48 PM Snooty snouts, eh? What about those critters' self-esteem?! LOL. Thanks, Caren. ~ gw

Lindsay Laurie December 17, 2019 at 12:03 AM G'day Gershon … love carrots; raw, cooked, or honeyed, but I still need reading glasses.
