Appreciate the light humours touch with hidden irony. It's difficult to pen Limerick and you are master of that

A follow-up to Beryl Edmonds "A Flying Romance" 02/11/24 Hello Daniel, you'll need to read Belles Limerick to understand my contribution. Btw what's worse than a centipede with sore feet? A giraffe with a sore throat! Thank you for the kind words. Robert
