One Sided

There was a pirate from Limerick

Who had a hook on a wooden stick

He stole with one hand

Now it’s contraband

Sold by a one-eyed Bolshevik

Hi Andrea. Thank you for your praise. Rather a pirate than Lord Nelson. Both blind on one eye ... Kind wishes, Kai

Thank you CayCay. I think I was a pirate in my past life. Would not have made the grade for Robin Hood. And prefer the ocean to the woods in any case. Some redistribution of wealth at least. Kind wishes, Kai
