Does a Bear Go In the Woods

I once saw a bear on the prowl
Who, one night encountered an owl
The owl said  "Who"
The Bear answered "Pooh"
I knew something smelled a bit fowl

Love it! And the end! Well written as always! A long time fan! His earlier stuff is incredibly intriguingly ‘delicious’ in content and in some cases I would say PROFOUND! Another GREAT WRITE JERRY!

Short succinct and incredibly funny in an unusually unfunny way! Fantastic write, we’ll dine mate!

I do know that bears cram leaves up in their rears when they hibernate. A perfect limerick, charming and funny!

Of course bears go down into the woods - How’d they picnic if they never should - Just the same as Pooh - Bears love honey too - Plus a basket full of tasty goods…… Belle
