Lotto Limerick

Lotto Limerick

Got the winning numbers in me head,   
Dreamed the buggers while in me bed,
Gave em to, newspaper Dan,  
Plugged em in, sure can,  
Wrong day, no way, so damn frustrated.

Ha, ha great write Don!! I just love this Limerick! I didn't know you can write these Limericks! You should write them more often! I hate playing the lotto actually...I never have won, no matter how much I play I don't win a dime...so I don't play! Great Work!!

Right day, but wrong numbers. That's what happens to nearly everybody. That's why there are so few winners. Good limerick, Don.
