- Everybody Knows Jack -

Poor old Jack he was not so quick
But still he had some more tricks
A charmer he once was
But from the ladies he did not get applause
- "Oh My God" ... you remind me of Santa Claus

A lot of people think that I don't know Jack. :) They're quick to stick a knife in my back. But you have shown what sweetness is. Maybe it's time to give them the biz. :) Thanks for stopping by Anne Lise.

Ah, "quick" in a different sense! Lots of great humor here, Anne-Lise. You could enter it in Jan's contest. Limericks are among my favorite forms. Well done! Love, Carolyn
