Brisbane Gal - a Bit Bawdy

I’m told of a gal in faraway Brisbane Whose abilities could drive a man insane She had a special gift While giving him a lift Few thought her tricks were completely inhumane

It sounds as if she might compare to a legend of song, "Mary Anne With the Shaky Hand". Thanks L Milton

That's a shame L Milton. It's a really good The Who song. Also a bit bawdy, but it turns out Mary Anne is just a shaky one handed drummer.

I'm not familiar with that song, Jeff. Perhaps.

The mind boggles, Milt. The expression ‘gift’ opens the mind to numerous possibilities… most of them ‘X’ rated. Witty Limerick. ;-)

Indeed! I let every reader decide how they want to interpret it.

You're best not to ask, Michael. It's totally fiction, you know. I've never even been to Brisbane!
