Andrea Dietrich Poet Limerick

In Suppression of Treason What Motive Or Reason

A prime minister of Land Down Under -
from her role she had been put asunder.
I've been reading of texts
and jokes made of her sex,
but about her I still have to wonder . . .

I surmise mostly Aussies would know
more exactly why she was let go,
I sure wish I knew
that at "Beyond Blue"
she was doing kids good. Do you think so?

April 17, 2022
For Joe Maverick's contest regarding Julia Gillard. Title is to be same as the name of this contest.
It's the best I could come up with from my research but I do not understand
Australian politics very well.

Who wants a mother who takes bribes? Good luck in the contest, Andrea! Aloha! Andrea Dietrich April 17, 2022 at 1:20 PM Did Julia take bribes. I don't even know!!
