Out on a Lim

"Remembering you Rico, I know you could have done much better" Quote by the Poet

Tabby waits til a ladder arrives.
He already used eight of his lives.
Was just on a silly whim,
He had climbed out on a limb.
But very close to him, big bee hives.

I miss him Kim.. I used to wait for his daily limerick to put me in a good mood. He was so clever and funny. Thanks for your comment.
