L Milton Hankins Poet Rhyme

Minor Catastrophe

A young lad once got caught in his zipper
An unfortunate case of the ripper
He shed lots of tears
Never lost his fears
Of peeing in his new bedroom slipper.

Andrea Dietrich March 6, 2022 at 11:25 AM oh wow, I wish I had tried this contest. It did not even occur to me to try the limerick route. Way to go , Milt. L Milton Hankins March 6, 2022 at 12:36 PM You would have aced it, Andrea. Thanks for the note.

Caren Krutsinger March 3, 2022 at 8:54 AM Ending rhyme is hilarious. Painful getting to it though. L Milton Hankins March 3, 2022 at 9:24 AM Yes, very! Most men have experienced this harrowing experience.

Harry Horsman March 1, 2022 at 7:05 PM I'd say that was a major, Milt, and it hurts. Great limerick, love it. L Milton Hankins March 1, 2022 at 7:39 PM Yes, it does, harry, and I'm sure that most of us have experienced it...or had a close call. Thanks for your read and your thoughts.

Marco Chies March 1, 2022 at 6:57 PM lol I think we've all been through situations like this. L Milton Hankins March 1, 2022 at 7:39 PM Indeed, Marco. A painful experience, I must say!

Robert Gorelick March 1, 2022 at 6:53 PM I hope his parents weren't pissed off! LoL...Rob L Milton Hankins March 1, 2022 at 7:40 PM I suspect they were lending a helping hand to the young lad, Rob. If he peed in his slippers, they were probably a bit pissed off!
