Early To Bed, Early To Rise - Bawdy Limerick

My auntie’s a consummate flirt and always wears a mini skirt Uncle sees her toned thighs and quickly gets a rise It’s early to bed says old Bert He deftly removes her silk stocking And quickly their headboard is knocking Much to their neighbours chagrin The party wall’s very thin Their bedroom antics he finds shocking Dear Auntie Eth’s ninety years young (And Uncle Bert’s very well hung) They’re old, but not wrecks They adore having sex Both glad their mattress is well sprung 07/31/21

Hello Jan ... age has no barrier when it comes to human interests. Good luck to them I say. Do you enjoy baby sitting Jan? Lindsay

Sounds like a happy and healthy couple! Always enjoy your 'body' humour. Loved your title and your clever, perfect ending line. Hope you are doing well. Hugs ~ John

What a delightful write, Jan. Amazing how we cannot picture our parents and grandparents having sex, but then, of course, we realize they did and do...they made us that way! I loved this! It is such a natural thing in life, I can never understand why it is seen by so many as a taboo subject.

Thanks Milton, I adore the limerick form and the bawdy humour they can contain, this was such fun to write:-) hugs Jan xx
