There is an odious gal named Meryl Go meddling with Meryl at your peril She bites where it hurts And calls it her perks For being an adventurous rebel. Meryl once bit a fella on the neck He said “dear, I only asked for a peck” So peck she then did And charged fifty quid He shot off at once and said “I’ve no cheque.” Meryl ran like a bat out of hell Used to it Meryl was, one can tell As there was no way She’d bite without pay For she was going through a dry spell.

Love your too cute write, still I’ll stay away from the biter… She bites where it hurts And calls it her perks. Can’t help smiling at this one.

This is so funny, Beryl ! I really would love to see Meryl, to try if she would turn to be my peril. Does Beryl have Meryl's qualities, I wonder.... :)

Thank you Valsa, glad to say Beryl is nothing like Meryl, she doesn’t bite for any price, not saying she’s perfect, but then who is…. Beryl

Meryl certainly gave him a fright, He wasn't expecting a bite, And having to pay, He thought no way, Then took off like a thief in the night.

Dear Beryl, What an enjoyable limerick about Meryl. I have three little granddaughters and they have all bitten me at one time or another. You made me smile with this one. Autumn Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel
