It was freezing so, and cold winds did blow As I walked slowly through the fallen snow But I slipped on some ice My keister paid the price Tried getting up, but down again I'd go 12-29-2020 Winter Snow Or Ice Limerick Contest Sponsor: Tania Kitchin

haha, I just about wrote one like this. I remember a tall boy from church who fell on ice in front of me many years ago. I later heard he had a crush on me, so now I know why his face got super red when he fell like that. poor guy. I think by now he is must be nearly 70. I heard he married a wonderful woman back in iowa!
