Star-Spangled Pilgrim

There once was a lad named Cy Milgram
A regular cool and hip pilgrim --
   He saw Plymouth 'Rock'
   Said, "Fast forward the clock!" --
Played Jimi Hendrix ~ nearly killed 'em

Too cool funny, Gershon!!! Do you remember the School House Rock public service commercials back in the day? Maybe I'm dating myself. It was in the 70's. Anywho ... your Plymouth Rock reference brought it back to my mind. Hilarious limerick tho'. Love and smiles always.

He certainly could. Thank you for your holiday wishes. Do you more than take note of this holiday on the other side of the Atlantic? Season's best, Gershon

Can you imagine? Have to laugh at the thought of a Pilgrim playing like Hendrix, but that's a great way to make Plymouth "Rock"! Enjoyed this timely treat for Thanksgiving, Gershon. Hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend. Hugs, Carolyn
