Rico Leffanta Poet Limerick

Ore G On

There once was a woman, "Plus sighs"
Who was known for her "Hungry Eyes"
Although she loved food
She soon had a brood
By switching to group exercise! *


*When the French discovered a land
teeming with food, grapes, and beautiful
women, they shouted, "Orgie en!"
which British censors translated as,
"The gold is gone" from the
Rendezvous pidgin, "Or est GONE!"
Oregon's motto is, "She soars on her own wings"
So you decide whether it was the girls
or the lack of gold . . . .

Lindsay Laurie September 9, 2021 at 6:49 PM Hello Rico ... I think they call this group exercise an orgy - thanks again Rico - Lindsay Rico Leffanta September 10, 2021 at 11:09 AM I would not know as I think privates are private? Aloha! Rico

Beryl Edmonds September 8, 2021 at 5:04 PM The exercise was good for her figure - Was the trigger to becoming trimmer - Her brood grew and grew - If only she knew - What was causing her chicks to come hither…… Belle Rico Leffanta September 9, 2021 at 11:13 AM Thanks for the giggle and, yes, such exercise is good for the figure!

L Milton Hankins September 8, 2021 at 12:59 PM Enjoyable, Rico. (chuckling) Hey, I'll go with the French! Never cared much for censors, be they British or otherwise. Rico Leffanta September 9, 2021 at 11:12 AM I think, "The gold is gone!" is a more likely the explanation than that given by wikipedia and Oregon . . . . .
