Bullwinkle's End

The journey began in Kigali, but came to an end at Denali: it started off Rocky, but downed with some Sake, grilled moose makes the perfect tamale.

Tamale's are good, but this is such a terrible way to go. Poor Moose. Your thoughts bring me back to when I watched "Rocky and Bullwinkle." I loved that show. Congratulations Jeff, on Poem of the Day. My best to you. Hugs, Brandy

Congrats on your fun POTD, Jeff. Being a Canadian, Rocky and Moose are my favourite topics - never thought of relating to delicious Tamale. Warm wishes ~ Mala

Jeff, as a vegetarian who loves animals of all, this makes me sad, but well done limerick, Constance

Well, Rocky and Bullwinkle are fictional, so no animals were harmed in the writing of this limerick, lol. Thanks for the read and the comment!
