Penguin Speak

Spiffed up in my tux and looking so cool My, how the ladies do titter and drool I strut about to entice Fell on my bum on the ice Picking myself up, slunk off like a fool

An excellent limerick By the way, I like humans..I do mean men in tuxedos are very handsome.. I’m not in love with the society with backward baseball caps on then I mean and forever dressing in jeans.. I don’t need to insult anybody that’s the way I feel. And mDad worked 12 hour day six days a week never in jeans. It’s very rare one ever sees a man in a tuxedo…. Have a great day! Pr

Thanks, Pangie. By the way, I interpret your comment and comments of others to mean I'm talking about me in the tux - no it is a penguin speaking about his plight and eventually slipping on the ice and falling on his arse and making a fool of himself - just to set the record straight - ha!
