Scrumpy Pumpy

The brewery's apple provider Saved Stella Strongbow from a spider While having a snog He fell in the grog And spent the whole evening in cider Love blossomed ’cause she was a cutie And, it must be said, quite a beauty A little bit smart A little bit tart And more than a little bit fruity *** Contest: Two Limericks Sponsor: Tania Kitchin Verse one: Edited for syllable count 28 February 2021 Verse two: 28 February 2021 Checked using Syllable Counter: 9,9,5,5,9 & 9,9,5,5,9

Thanks Jan. Two google searches here... do Americans drink cider and have Americans heard of Scrumpy. I wonder if I’m a tad too fastidious. Hugs back. Terry
