The Balls of Henry

This in in tribute to Chris A. and his ball limericks.

Old Henry, he had the desire
And a picture which sure did inspire
But with each frantic movement
He found no improvement
All he got was Great Balls of Fire

For he chose as a fantasy muse
Suzie, a female ruse
When he found she was male
All his efforts did fail
And Henry was stuck with his blues

yes, Chris did inspire me quick
With his poems about old Henry's stick
And the view he'd invoke
Describing each stroke
That led to this new limerick
