Silly Me
I went out when I shouldn't have, silly me Slid on the ice, though not too daintily  Did the splits in my glide In that I took great pride But had no pride in thighs hugging a tree.

I only fell once on ice in London. Had to go back and change as the ice was wet. No ice in Malta, only cold wind. ~~

Thank you Victor, I fell once in Birmingham, a long time ago, slid and fell flat out on my back, lucky for me a neighbour came to the rescue. Malta, what a nice place to be in. ~~ Belle

I’ve slid and fallen. Great and funny limerick!
