Retaliatory Repersussions

A young fertile mother begat

Triplets , called Tim , Tom  and  Tat .

Great  fun  at  breeding .

Confusion  at  feeding .

When   she  found  there  was  no tit~for~tat ..

Sean, I have always loved Limericks (and Limerick, too, for that matter) and this is brilliant and hilarious. Can't imagine how it took me so long to read it! Reminds me of the old spoof book title "Infants Revenge" by Nora Titsoff. Nigel

He's the skinny one of the three. Poor guy is gonna need therapy when he gets older. My luck is so bad that if I was Dolly Parton's kid, I would have been bottle fed. Have a great one, Sean. Vince
