Fat Acrobats

A fat acrobat from Detroit lost his grip for he wasn't adroit he fell with a plop his partner on top which really was quite an exploit! Yes, Tubby made quite a fine matress Ringling Brothers asked for his address he made his career plopped on his derriere It seems he had started a fad.. YES! Soon crowds lined the seats of the rink wondering if Tubby would stink he finished the task in spite of some gas Now Tubby is dressing in mink.

Very nice limericks... Yes I can see that you really enjoy limericks... The one about the 'frock' is probably not publishable on PS... what a pity... Actually, I was a tiny bit worried about the censor with mine (and thanks for commenting!)... Terry
