Robert L. Hinshaw Poet Limerick

She Kept 'Em In Stitches

She was a jolly seamstress Miss Gritches

     Who was a whiz at patchin' men's britches

          And alterin' ladies skirts

                And sewin' buttons on shirts

                     'Twas said she kept her patrons in 'stitches'

Very dangerous indeed, but the taipan is not only highly venomous, but really aggressive also - thanks for your dose of wit Bob - Lindsay Robert L. Hinshaw August 9, 2020 at 3:26 PM Thank you, Sir! Yes, I've seen on TV and read about the taipan - ain't one to mess with! I appreciate the time you take to comment on my nonsense. Bob H
