Timothy Mcguire Poet Limerick

Miss Peg

i have a proud hen called miss peg
who hasn't given me one egg
she is failing to produce
i am starting to deduce
the best part of her is the leg

Lindsay Laurie November 19, 2019 at 11:04 PM G'day Timothy … pleased you wrote the footnote other wise I thought that your chooks might have laid in a pan surrounded by vegetables - thanks Timothy - Lindsay Timothy Mcguire November 20, 2019 at 3:46 PM cant say I haven't considered that, but they are the wife's pets! Those omelets she is eating are very expensive.

Line Gauthier November 18, 2019 at 9:11 PM A totally delightful poem, Timothy. My father raised hens on his little self-sufficiency farm. He had names for many of them. So I am particularly fond of this little gem. A FAVE limerick for me. Timothy Mcguire November 18, 2019 at 9:17 PM I am glad I made you smile!
