Some Romeo - Bawdy

Matt gifted her chocs and a flower
Without joy after many an hour
    Rebuffed trouser lump
    Not even dry hump
So ended the night with cold shower

Hello John. This was the chuckle and smile for the day. Thank you. Limericks are harder than what they look and you did well. Now about that shower.....

Thanks Lisa... am glad it made you smile. You're right that limericks are a tricky beast and I've only written a few that I'm happy with (including this one)! Your kind comments are always appreciated! Regards, John.

Thanks for your comments... fair point, but I needed something to rhyme with "Flower"! Hey, you could always consider the "cold shower" to be a metaphor for something else!! Hope the limerick made you laugh! Regards, John.

Hope didn't cause offence - was listed as "Bawdy" in the title. Hopefully made you smile, at least. Regards, John.
