Revenge of the Leprechaun

A leprechaun shouted to me, 'I'm stuck on a branch of this tree!' I thought I was bold to ask for his gold, but ran when he started to pee... for Milton's St Patrick Day's contest

Heya jack congratulations on your top win, I’m not sure if you realize how near to the truth your limerick is, I’ve been to many St Patrick day parades, and the amount of drunk people dressed as leprechauns peeing in side streets, is a site to behold, great poem and fully deserved win, cheers David

Oohoohoo! I wonder if leprechaun pee is any worse than any other. Been peed on by lots of babies, a dog once or twice and even a duck who pooed in my lap but no leprechauns. This one made me laugh. Thanks bunches for sharing this one. Hope it's a winner. God Bless, JB
