Top of The Afternoon to you Tim. Oh boy. Ok this was the smile for the afternoon. Thank you for that. This is light and so in the spirit of a Limerick. I've been seeing so many Limericks theses days I have to try another attempt at it for you all seem to be having a good time. Enjoy the night. Well done and I'm still smiling at the thought and at the originality of it all.

Haha, good one Tim :) I refused to eat the chickens my Father would "make ready" for our dinners. I went without. After all, I had NAMED those chickens... they had become my pets. I COULDN'T eat them !!

Crispy fried chicken is good as long as it doesn't have a name. Fun poem Tim :)

Well, I'm not eating chicken, and I didn't get the memo about positive posts today. Love your limerick, Tim. My condolences on the loss of your pet, and boo hiss to your Mom.
