Notes About The Poem

A Fruity and Funny Limerick Poetry Contest

Pears

I had a naughty dream and dreamt of pears
Looked away but I couldn't help my stares
It was at my local beach
She was way out of my reach
A topless lady without any cares...

I was looking for a poem of yours on which I haven't commented. Finally I came to this limerick, I have commented more than once, I think . The analogy makes me smile again and again. Tom, you're the limit. :)

Thank you very much Sara, im on the up and up now, the past year has been a bit grim, had 18 staples removed from my back yesterday and that's really improved my discomfort. Hope you're having a lovely weekend. Tom
