Robert L. Hinshaw Poet Limerick

The Plumber's Cheeks

Once there was a plumber named Cletus Leaks,

   Who when working 'neath sinks exposed his cheeks!

      While adjusting his britches,

         He left ladies in stitches,

            As they all giggled between furtive peeks!

Jan Allison January 4, 2019 at 6:18 PM Absolutely 'hilariarse' Robert lol:-) hugs jan xx Robert L. Hinshaw January 4, 2019 at 7:13 PM Jan there is a TV ad here in the colonies showing a plumber working on his hands and knees on a sink and his "cheeks" are grinning at you. Then the ad advertises mens underdrawers that will fix the problem & that's where I got the idea for this one. I think you Brits call it "builders bottom" per Tom Cunningham!

Alexis Y. January 4, 2019 at 4:10 PM Lol! Robert, This is funny! I laughed out loud! I enjoyed the line" He left the ladies in stiches". I wish you the best of luck in the contest:-) Alexis
