Tania Kitchin's Funny Summer Limerick Contest ~ August 7, 2024

This summer has been much hotter than most About the tan I got, I dare not boast My body is quite a sight Because my back side is white But from the front view, I look like burnt toast

Hi Mike. Thank you. PS has lost some of its glitter and appeal so I’m hoping entering contests might make it more appealing again.

ha Spice is nice as long as it's not too peppery. Wouldn't want my 'mean girl' rep to be more evident.

Thanks, Tom. The Soup has lost its appeal lately, so I'm going to enter contests again, hoping it will renew my interest in the site. Sunburns are ouchies!
