Curiosity

As a child it was fun and quite daring
To ogle what the other was carrying
We hid in the loft
Where we played quite oft
To inspect what the other was baring

Just the right blend of naughtiness and humor in your limerick, Caryl. And this is truly how kids "play" in the loft. Best wishes for success in Deb's contest! Love, Carolyn
