Wrinkled clothes won’t get smoothed out today. On my Bing board, I’ll hang ten and sway. To the oldies I’m groovin’. Like a teen, I am movin’. With the Beach Boys, I’ll surf U. S. A.! title--hit song by the Beach Boys, 1963 Bing surf boards—first one produced in 1959 July 17, 2022 written for Lisa YY's limerick contest Placed 2nd

And there was me thinking ‘Bing’ was a typo. Congrats on your educational win, Janice. Terry

THANKS, Terry. I, who NOTHING about surfboards, needed a one-syllable word there; so I looked up brands. :-) Janice

Your poem gives delight to the photo in these splendid lines, Janice: To the oldies I’m groovin’. Like a teen, I am movin’. With the Beach Boys, I’ll surf U. S. A.!
