Notes About The Poem

Right On Cue - Bawdy Limerick

A surprise anniversary gift, Caused giggles, which gave me such a lift, If I was a nun, I sure could have fun, A cucumber .. if you get my drift! My lovely friend Chris gave me a bag with some chocolates and a card and carefully wrapped in white tissue paper was a 9 inch cucumber which her husband had grown - it certainly made me giggle! 06/22/20

Instantly reminded me of that quiz show contestant who was asked, "After your wedding and you were finally alone with your husband, what did you say to him?" and she responded, "Ah, gee; that an hard one!" Aloha! Rico

I can't stop laughing. This is one of your funniest limericks, Jan, and you surely know how to write them. There is an ad for an erectile dysfunction medication on TV and they use a cucumber to illustrate it. Quite bold, eh? Enjoyed your poem very much. Hugs, Carolyn

Now what's so funny about a 9" cucumber? (*wink, wink, just kidding*) Loved the cue pun in the title, too. Thanks for sharing another grin and giggle, dear Jan!
