Morning Glory - Contains Innendo - Bawdy

The farmer’s cock rises each morning It signals a new day is dawning His wife ignores him in bed Says she’s got a bad head Perhaps she requires pre-warning NB I BREAK NO RULES POSTING BAWDY LIMERICKS - THE FORM IS BY NATURE ALLOWED TO BE RIBALD AND I GIVE WARNING THE POEM MAY CONTAIN INNUENDO 07/08/21

Dear cock's wife, don't worry about anything, he just fulfills his mission... awakening the world to life...you know that the Lord has many mansions and the rooster has many beds... salute alkas

i think you are one very clever poetess, as your poems which have humorous innuendos cause laughter which possibly reaches you in rippling crescendos! Hugs and blessings, Jenifer.

Thanks Jennifer I am so glad so many appreciate my humour and i always warn a poem may be somewhat ribald and I will NEVER stop trying to make folk smile with my sillies. I have one guy who has tried several times to sully my reputation with blogs but he is fighting a losing battle and folk take no notice of his hypocrisy, perhaps he will stop blogging as he promised last year but a leopard doesnt seem to be able to change his spots. :-( hugs jan xx

I would not explain why a limerick is bawdy. Those who don't like them can skip reading them. Hugs xx

I get bullied by a troll with 3 blogs aimed at my bawdy poetry so i am just making a point Victor and I always write bawdy if I deem a limerick to be a little ribald but this jerk likes to stir the soup bowl but i break no rules:-) hugs jan xx

Yeah Jan I agree with Terry, nothing wrong with a (morning glory) farmers wife has no appreciation for nature, you said it was bawdy, just to lure us in, brilliant lol, cheers David

I don’t understand... what’s wrong with a noisy cockerel? And if all that cockereling gives the farmer’s wife a headache, what’s the big surprise? Funny tale, Jan. Did you consider making it bawdy? ;-) Terry ;-)

Jan Allison
Date: 7/9/2021 8:06:00 AM

oh gosh it never crossed my mind Terry lol:-) hugs Jan xx

Hi Jan, You're always good at letting the reader know if the Limerick is bawdy. I happen to like all of the limericks you write, bawdy or not. This one was no exception! You are the Limerick Queen:-) Alexis

Jan Allison
Date: 7/9/2021 8:08:00 AM

I have always written bawdy in the title and I will continue to do so so no one is in any doubt the poem is ribald and will not be bullied and belittled by blog hogs, i hope he gets the message and doesn't do another blog aimed at me - he did say he wouldn't blog again but we know he cant resist stirring soup. Hugs Jan xx

When the farmer rises in the morning - His wife shuts her eyes tight and starts snoring - She can't stand the crowing - It just keeps on growing - As she ignores his ardent imploring…….. Belle :-) xx

hahaha Belle you are hilarious, let the humour flow on soup we definitely need more wit on here it is sadly lacking at times:-) hugs jan xx

This is a perfectly fine limerick, Jan. I loved it. Pay no attention to the PC police when it comes to limericks!

Jan Allison
Date: 7/11/2021 5:41:00 PM

I think folk are getting wise to him now and he gets little support, perhaps he should do the honourable thing and stop blogging (as he promised last year after a blog about trolls and bullies) but he likes the attention he gets by writing blogs.

L Milton Hankins
Date: 7/9/2021 1:06:00 PM

Jan, there are some people (and some on here) who seem to believe that rules do not pertain to them, here or anywhere else. They seem to know-it-all, and they don't care whom they hurt. They are bullies, pure and simple!

Jan Allison
Date: 7/8/2021 11:50:00 AM

you have seen the way they operate Milton I have them blocked but it hasnt stopped the hypocrite blogging - shame he cant read soup rules he is breaking plenty at the moment:-( hugs jan xx

jan - this is hilarious and i'm delighted to see that the soup police did not substitute asterisks in your first line...

Jan Allison
Date: 7/8/2021 11:34:00 AM

yes the pc brigade will be swarming lol to be honest after 7 years on the site writing silly poems I am at a loss as to why certain folk try to bully and belittle me about my limericks. I break no rules and always indicate if it is somewhat ribald and i have seen far more suggestive ones that i would ever write but they seem to target me, anyway I am here to stay:-) hugs Jan xx

Rico Leffanta

Pre-warming works, too, as well as just being sneaky .....Thanks for the laugh! Aloha! Rico

Another in your delightful line of witty, "ribald," limericks of humerous double entredre. Humerous poems are hard to write. You have such a gift for making us smile, Jan! Thank you for all of the smiles, giggles and tee-hee's!

Jan Allison
Date: 7/8/2021 11:13:00 AM

Thanks Sam I will never stop trying to raise a smile and love the use of innuendo in the poems and I will not change my style after 7 years on the site:-) hugs jan xx
