The Limerick is great as it is Alexis…… Sally grew to be tall as a tree - And very acrobatic was she - She'd shed all in winter - And people shout "Timber" - When she does splits with all a kimber…… Belle

Very well penned Limerick Alexis; I enjoyed reading it. I need to practice for this form too, I rarely write Limericks, but Tom is the master in this kind of humoristic writing. Best wishes for a good weekend.

She is VERY limber, that Sally. I use the name Sally a lot in some of my bawdy limericks too!! Nice first attempt, dear Alexis.
