Jeff Connelly Poet Limerick

Pooh

“Pooh”


Winnie’s squeezed sigh was rather prehensile
butt Oh bother! was the scoop by Walter Winchell
bears do do do in the woods
but the buzz to bee understood
is it’s trees that make number two pencils

Ilene Bauer November 1, 2023 at 12:16 PM you are so funny, jeff! i always write with number 2 pencils, but never thought about that reference before. unfortunately, i most likely will from now on... Jeff Connelly November 2, 2023 at 9:39 AM I apologize for scarring your future writings ilene. I suggest instead, this quote from Spike Milligan: “Said Hamlet to Ophelia, I'll draw a sketch of thee. What kind of pencil shall I use? 2B or not 2B?”

Lin Lane November 1, 2023 at 3:09 AM Lol Jeff. You squeezed a lot of references between Pooh and poo into these lines. Use a keyboard instead of a #2 pencil and save a tree. Still need toilet paper, though. Jeff Connelly November 1, 2023 at 4:14 AM I use pens, but, sorry trees, I still use paper. But you can use mullein, boy scout's toilet paper, for your other business ;)~
