Limerick - Bob the Barber

A young guy was a new barber named Bob, Bob, most of the time did a real good job; cutting not his only thing, dancing he would sway and sing; eek, snip, snip, oops . . . poor barber Bob- sob, sob ! ______________________________ January 8, 2019 Poetry/Limerick/Bob the Barber Copyright Protected, ID 19-1102-214-02 All Rights Reserved.

Ack! You brought back memories of my last root canal. It took three hours per day for three days (in three weeks) and the dentist sang along to the Frank Sinatra music playing in his office. Very good humor, Dear Heart. Congratulations on your win! Best wishes, Carolyn (Still trying to come up with something for your contest.)

LOL Had a dentist who sang while doing root canal. Results were "in tune" with your barber's. Witty and clever, Dear Heart. Best wishes in Joseph's contest!
