Terry Flood Poet Limerick

Grannys Gnashers

Last Christmas Gran sucked her roast beef
Lost dentures were giving her grief
We had Christmas pud
Which should have been good
The ‘Crunch!’ meant I’d found Grandma’s teeth

Congratulations on your win! :) Linda Alice Fowler November 29, 2022 at 10:56 AM LOL :)) Terry Flood November 26, 2022 at 10:45 AM Thank you, Linda. I thought maybe RTFL meant Rancid Teeth For Lunch… ha ha. Looked it up and found it’s a compliment, so you clearly have excellent taste ;-)

L Milton Hankins November 20, 2022 at 4:34 PM Oh, this is hilarious, Terry. Terry Flood November 21, 2022 at 10:52 AM Thanks, Milt. I was close to drawing a blank on this contest. But missing a limerick contest seemed unthinkable so I smacked myself around the head until something got written. Glad you enjoyed the result.
