Jail Bird

I met a jail bird in Fort Lauderdale He needed some money to make his bail I might’ve helped him get out But I had no financial clout So, he’s still languishing in County Jail. written March 5, 2022

Another little gem Milton, so lovely to have a laugh at somebody elses work, for the right reasons :)

Poor imagination and fiction. I've only passed through Ft. Lauderdale!

Nope, wasn't me! Just pure fiction. I thought it would be fun to rhyme with Ft. Lauderdale.
