Mixed Emotions

Jerry's task, to 'Write a merry jingle'
Something to make toes and fingers jingle
   He wrote of how his fat wife
   Had been happy all her life
Won the contest, but now he is single

Ha!! Ha!! Well, sometimes women who are obese seem happy on the outside but are dying on the inside. I like the limerick though. As always what appears to be is not necessarily what is. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara

Well, we men who are obese, or getting close, are dying inside too. It's no fun, I can assure you. Thank you for your support, Sara! :) gw
