Out On A Limb

A tall tree I did climb, on a bet of a dime. Baby Bear said it was funny, it was not for the big money. The limb broke what a crime.

I loved your limerick, yet this is not the contest as I think it should deal with some animal.

Ouch!! Your limb, or the tree's limb or both? As an aside my friends and I when we were kids always used to climb trees usually for conkers (the hard, shiny dark brown nut of a horse chestnut tree). Do kids climb trees nowadays? I don't know. I digress. I enjoyed your limerick Paula. Cheers - Gary

Dear Paula, you took a chance climbing a tall tree, was it worth a climb for a dime… Beryl
