Notes About The Poem

I Just Wear a Smile

In winter I wear cute pyjamas They’re adorned with sweet little llamas We’ve had snow storm after storm I yearn to be somewhere warm Like Nassau in the Bahamas! In summer I just wear a smile Stark naked, I sleep in this style Towards the end of summer Hubby thinks it’s a bummer ... He praying the sun stays a while! **** my PJ's have cute penguins on them ... as for the rest of the poem I am saying nothing lol**** 6/16/18

haha, Joe would love if I slept naked!! But he sleeps so soundly , he would not notice anyway. I, on the other hand, am always lying there all night, hardly able to get to sleep. Jan, these are great limericks. You are really putting out some winners.
