Sally Sue

There was once a gal named Sally Sue
    who liked to swim wearing just two red shoes
             folk thought it was strange 
               she said it’s free-range
      Her red shoes vanished, she’s  sad and blue

Hey, this is really cute, Alexis!... Here's a chuckle for you: The first time I read the second line, I thought to myself -- 'JUST' two read shoes?! -- As if Sally Sue should have been wearing three or four shoes, or something... lol... Then, duh-me!, I got it! Super limerick! Thanks, Gershon

This is cute! I would be sad too; I’m a pretty free range gal, who digs red shoes ;), Have a fabulous weekend my friend, stay happy and safe, xomo
