"Love Me Or Hate Me" ~ Says the Limerick I am only five lines written for fun Mocking someone with foolish words of pun Love 'em or hate 'em You praise or condemn A poetry form some call "hit and run" Some think of me as inconsequential To the haughty I am nonessential It's a thought I refute And would gladly dispute Cuz nothing I say is confidential I read Jan's limericks about Tess Tickle But did you know Tess spent her last nickle Buying new underwear Cause she hadn't a spare She kept leaking in some sort of trickle Tess had a good friend with the name of Neve Cheated by keeping aces up her sleeve She thought she was smart Until she got caught That taught her it doesn't pay to decieve And then there was the one they called Maisy Made faces that caused her to look crazy One day her eye got stuck And she looked like a duck So now everyone calls her Miss Daisy There once was a gal whose name was Mary Wore wings pretending she was a fairy Then I swear on my word She flapped 'em like a bird And started singing like a canary Heard them tell about a gal named Sally Made money hanging out in the alley But then she got greedy With those who were seedy It was curtains in her grand finale I used to know a chesty lass named Pam She had to tote them around in a pram Then had an operation A booby castration I heard she now goes by the name of 'Sam' Did you hear about the one called Yvette She can't remember and started to fret It made me want to cry I can't figure out why Umm.. umm.. I'm too old and tend to forget

The feast was deliciously divine...both sipping on the finest of wine...an all night affair... expelling our fear....later the pics are going online

au contraire, dear romantic poet, Tim....But I have no twin for a synonym...We supped in a feast...Passions were released...And we did it with such vigor and vim

Thanks, Jerry T. My muse picked up where Jan's Tess Tickle started it all. I guess now I'll HAVE to create a male version. What fun that'll be!!!

Thank you most kindly, Tom. I had to wrestle with my muse and beg her to put more of her thoughts on hold. She reluctantly said, "OK," but only if I promised to write another using the names of the male gender. ;-)
