My neighbor, who has sticky fingers, lifts merchandise fast, never lingers. Inside her big jacket each item, she'll pack it-- fine necklaces, rings, even Zingers! Her P O saw her steal his money. He said to her, “Girl, this ain’t funny.” There ensued a clamor. She’s back in the slammer. Her Mom said, “I’ll visit ya, Honey!” Zingers--snack cakes P O--parole officer syllable count in each stanza 9 9 6 6 9 Used howmanysyllables.com February 26, 2021 Contest Title: Two Limericks--Let's Have Some Fun Sponsor: Tania Kitchin

Hello Janice … Just found a woman’s body that was missing for three months. Seems she embezzled 20 million off family and friends by claiming investing, so your limericks ring very true to me - thank you Janice - Lindsay

That's quite a brave move to steal from your parole officer! Mom's not helping her out of this jam. Enjoyed, Janice. Best wishes for a win in Tania's contest! Hugs, Carolyn
