LOL your poems do more than you know. There once was a wise man named Jacko Who started his morning with HO HO His words were refined the very best kind He's really a poet not wacko.

ha ha ha that final line is hilarious. I must get limerick writing from my mum's side of the family as her sister and brother both wrote humourous poems - I wrote one recently for my aunt's 90th - WHAT'S IN A NAME - A BAWDY POEM FOR MY AUNT'S 90TH BIRTHDAY. I think you may like it dear jack lol:-) hugs Jan xx
