Lonesome Randy

There was a young fellow named Randy,
Whom girls thought a little too handy.
They all ran away
On Valentine’s Day,
Although they accepted his candy.

Poor Randy was very down hearted.
His candy and he were soon parted.
Not one little kiss
From any sweet miss 
Though economy he restarted.





For Francine's Valentine Limerick contest  4th place
