L Milton Hankins Poet Limerick

Don'T Tell My Dad

There once was a young tot named Fazool
Who attends a posh nursery school
Got himself in a pickle
For charging a mere nickel
Each time he let a girl see his tool.

Fazool was an enterprising lad
He didn't think it was awfully bad
To expose his small private
He would surely survive it
As long as nobody told his dad!

Alexis Y. February 28, 2021 at 12:30 PM Hi L. Milton, He might as well brace himself; I'm sure someone at the school is going to tell his dad. Best wishes in the contest:-) Alexis L Milton Hankins February 28, 2021 at 6:42 PM Oh well, Alexis. That would be fodder for another limerick, wouldn't it? Thanks for stopping by.

Maurice Rigoler February 26, 2021 at 2:29 PM Ha ha. Fazool – that's a new one to add to a list of dozens more for the male member. In classical Latin, it's "penis" but its vulgar counterpart is "mentula". Roman poets Martial and Catullus use it often in their less polite verses. I'd attempt to post a short poem by Martial using "mentula" but I doubt it would escape the prudish eyes of those in command. / Thanks for stopping by. / Maurice L Milton Hankins February 26, 2021 at 3:49 PM Hmmm...well, it was a word I came up with in my meager brain for the boy, in this case. He called his penis his "tool," a word I suppose he got from the dad he feared! Thanks for the reading and information. I appreciate you!

Carolyn Devonshire February 26, 2021 at 10:21 AM Hope his father doesn't find out. Now I'm wondering what the right price for a peek at Fazool's tool would be :) Enjoyed, Milton. Best wishes in Tania's fun contest! L Milton Hankins February 26, 2021 at 10:52 AM Hmmmm. I'd say a nickels a lot when you're a tot! And, just think, twenty peeks would earn a dollar! Thanks for your best wishes, Carolyn.
