Notes About The Poem

Tania's Limerick Contest ~ August 30, 2026

Nothing Flaccid or Jiggly

This Limerick contains no dirt or smut
No pontification of breasts or butt
Just tryin' to keep it clean
Nothing bawdy ~ quite pristine
No flaccid male parts, not one jiggly nut

Bawdy it is not, unless you have an imagination. Loughed my head off Lin, you ingenious genius! Congrats on your top win, Lin. Well deserved.

No dirt or smut in a limerick? There are some who will ask…what’s the point?!!! Great work, Lin. Congratulations.

You can write anything you set your mind to challenge and you would do it. Thank you for liking my Limmie. Always wishing I didn’t have to stop at just one. 🥹

No, absolutely nothing lewd at all, no body parts, nothing about how they may or may not perform or perhaps move. PG here, all the way. Fun one. I enjoyed very much. Are they reading Jan's book? CayCay

Sometimes I have flashbacks from editing Jan's books. HAHA CayCay. I'm glad you approve of my PG Limerick... probably the only clean one I'll ever write!

Thanks a big bunch, Dorothy. I saw what Tania asked for when it came to being bawdy.
