The Minx

There once was a lady from Lynx,
Who was a veritable minx,
she wrote about love,
cooed like a dove,
loved mixing ambiguous drinks.


Now the minx was wearing a wig,
Which made her look like a fig,
And she had the gall,
To hold me in thrall,
And jabbed me with a two-pronged twig!

That is a silly little story. This creates a type of picture that would illustrate a children's book or at least make an outline for a coloring book.

Perfectly ambiguous and full of innuendo Victor, just like a top class limerick should be, cheers David
