Robert L. Hinshaw Poet Limerick

Quid Pro Quo

There was a local lad named one-armed Joe

     Who was an alligator wrestling pro

          He misjudged the 'gator's snap

               Resulting in this mishap

                    He dined on 'gator tail as quid pro quo

Andrea Dietrich March 18, 2011 at 8:38 AM Great limerick, Robert!! And thanks for saying so,but I will be surprised if my macaw wins at all! Anyway, all you have to do is go to Utube and type in something like blue and gold macaws at play. This should bring up some fun videos to see!!
