The Lizard of Oz

There once was a green lizard of Oz
Fought by two ferocious dogs, he was
So the tale of woe goes
He swallowed them both whole
And barking became his dialogue.

Christina Bowring Date: 9/9/2023 2:09:00 PM Love this dear Belle. I’m still smiling :) now. So funny and the title- one of the best films ever in my opinion. It inspires me to have a go at the limerick poem as every time I read someone’s limerick on here it makes me laugh, smile, giggle which is a wonderful thing, gift, in itself. Keep making us smile. Hugs to you. Login to Reply Beryl Edmonds Date: 9/9/2023 3:06:00 PM Christina, limerick’s are such fun, to do or read so have a go please do. Thank you, Belle

Michelle Faulkner Date: 9/8/2023 7:27:00 PM Wow, that title is priceless, and all of it so creative, is that where 'barking mad' comes from :) Login to Reply Beryl Edmonds Date: 9/9/2023 12:52:00 AM It probably is where “barking mad” comes from Michelle. Thank you for the read and comments… Belle
