Grady Lost His Lady

There's an Irish lad named Grady
Who confessed love for his lady
Sadly, she blew him off
With a snub and a scoff
For thinking his motives shady

Grady's heart was torn asunder
She stole it like thieves steal plunder
He threw a gauntlet glove
Waging war against love
Claiming romance was his blunder

He changed his mind when he met Vie
So he gave love another try
But she ran off with Stan
Then left that man for Dan
Grady had been just one more guy

Months later, Grady was smitten
When he fell in love with Kitten
All he could do was stare
At her blue eyes, so fair
By that feline he'd been bitten

A great series of fun limericks Lin, in traditional good old fashioned limerick style, these look simple to do, but believe me they really do take a lot of practice and creativity, love the last one, although I know you meant canine and Jan got confused she meant puppy love, yeah that’s what happened lol! Cheers David
