The Earth Moved

There was a couple that went off to Spain
They sat on the roof sunbathing again
They felt the earth shake
Though love they didn’t make
It was a 5.8 earthquake, that hit once again

My Dear Sister, Mandy, if I keep reading YOUR SOUPER Super Limericks I may be able to write one soon. I wonder if when YOU wrote this YOU looked at the future in a Crystal Ball, as YOU and Hubby just came back from Spain; but this was written a Year ago.Paranormal?? I LOVE YOU SIS, ALWAYS and FOREVER YOUR Brother Eternal...Harry

Your picture looks like you sunbathing in Spain. On a scale of 5.8 I rate you 5.8. Nice tan and Limerick.

A fun one, Mandy. Have you ever been in an earthquake? I don't know what 5.8 feels like,but I was in the one around 7.9 in San Francisco in '89. Where are you from?
