Very many thanks, Seren, for remarking that this limerick appears to you to be funny. That's also of course part of the genre's appeal, apart from it being - normally supposed to be - salacious (among other things): not in this case, I'm afraid. Might I point out "sows" in the poem happens to be a verb. Every good wish for the New Year! Wignesan
