Sausages in the Snow

As I walked with my dog through the snow, I found two severed hands and a toe But my cute little lurcher Just loves a frankfurter - He gobbled them up in one go! Feb 2018 Inspired by, but not entered for, the “As I was walking in the snow” contest. Entered for Robert Haigh’s “Your Best Single Limerick” contest

Great fun, Nina. I wondered what happened to those fingers? (see my poem 'For a seven year old' ). Viv x
