Grandpa's Playground

At one-hundred grandpa dreams of a fling
Scoring the streets for a saucy young thing
   He's mastered a line
   That works every time
'Come to my playground, and learn how to swing!'

I so want to grow up to be your grandpa. Mind you, I’d probably get locked up. Great limerick, Gershon. Terry

Be careful around the see-saw gramps, all of those ups and downs aren't good for you. :) This was fun to read, love the flow.

Thanks, Chris. I was wondering why I kept falling after getting of the 'saw part,'... or was it the 'see part.' Must be 'see-saw sickness.' Smiles, gw

Wow, your grandpa was something else, especially for his age. I don't imagine, should I live that long, I'd be able to do much swinging!~
