Robert L. Hinshaw Poet Limerick

Southern Comfort

Cletus finds comfort in Southern Comfort

   The day is lost if he don't have a snort

      He doesn't like Four Roses

         Old Turkey he opposes

            He prefers Southern Comfort by the quart

Tony Lane September 17, 2011 at 10:30 AM My mom used to make a Christmas punch with Southern Comfort, It was the only time of the year that they would drink and probably the reason that I don't. Tony
