Limerick: Once a Lone Sailor Sank With His Ship

Limerick : Once a lone Sailor who sank wih his ship Once a lone Sailor who sank with his ship Bargained with a Mermaid through her hare-lip She would give him a lift If he’d give her a gift That’s how mermaids got to wear haïr-clip. OR That’s how mermaids got second hare-lip. © T. Wignesan – Paris, 2013

hahaha. I can't decide which punchline is best. They're both damned good. :)

Hi, back again, after other acknowledgments to your comments. Very many thanks. What's this soup mail? I don't know if I know how to tap into it. Glad you appreciate naughty, nasty minds like mine. You're "damned" right about it all. Every good wish. Wignesan
