Jan Allison Poet Limerick

Notes About The Poem

MANY THANKS TO MAMA BEAR FOR SENDING THE CARTOON WHICH INSPIRED THE POEM

 

Having a Ball

I felt so sorry for my friend Rodger
Who’d developed a lump by his todger
When he turned up for his scan
It wasn’t done by a man
The photographer was his new lodger 

How he winced when he saw the machine
Roger thought it looked so cruel and mean
His balls gripped in a vice
Did not feel very nice ...
He was thankful his boxers were clean!
