Hived

There was a beekeeper named Jives
Who found a rash on his thighs.
The doctor said be at peace,
Nothing to fear in the least.
You simply have too many hives.

Andrea Dietrich Date: 8/29/2015 10:47:00 PM wow, I think I have found a great limerick writer at Soup!! this is just as good as those other two I really liked. Login to Reply Paul Schneiter Date: 8/29/2015 11:07:00 PM Thank you, Andrea. I really appreciate your encouraging comments. I should note that I found a great poet right here on Soup when I discovered your poems. I plan to comment on some of those tomorrow.

Lindsay Laurie Date: 8/12/2015 7:45:00 PM G'day Paul... I did get a real chuckle out of your limerick, and it does bring to mind how words in the English language have double meanings - thanks Paul - Lindsay Login to Reply Paul Schneiter Date: 8/12/2015 9:35:00 PM As usual, you make a perceptive comment, Lindsay. Until a person gets the "hang" of English, he/she must be careful re. word usage. A U.S. friend of mine, visiting an English family, said--on being introduced to their young son, "He's sure a cute little bugger." He wasn't invited back.

So, is your interview on Manx AM or FM, or does it matter? I'm excited about hearing it and have located the station, but haven't been able to access the interview. Paul Schneiter Date: 8/9/2015 10:47:00 PM Jan, It gives me no small measure of joy to know that you enjoy my efforts to write something funny. Thank you. (Please see a Soup Mail message I sent re. your interview.)
