Line Gauthier Poet Limerick

Show Girls

There once were three girls from Athena
Sweet Lena, Helena and Celestina 
        Each to make a bit of dough
        All set to put on a show
Gave fame’s wheel a spin in packed arena

Artsieladie Sharon Donnelly April 29, 2018 at 5:57 PM Your limerick reminds me a little of the saying, 'Be careful what you wish for...', Line. With humour written, days of yore, none better could be asked for. All the best and God bless. :) ~ Artsie Line Gauthier April 29, 2018 at 10:14 PM LOL thanks for your lovely and delightful visit, Artsieladie.
