Long Haired Ponytail

Abigail Kirk lived in outback town Burke,
A hotel receptionist, she had a slight quirk,
Her rather long ponytail stretched to the floor,
After a few years it had grown much more,
She sold it to ten bald men and retired from work.

I was happy for Abigail, made enough money to retire and she lifted a big weight off her shoulders. After Abigail's success a lot of girls in town started growing pony tails. hahaha.....Thank you Kim for your much appreciated comment...hugs from John
