The Prince a Limerick






                          The Prince
                           8/18/2022

             A tall,handsome,wealthy Prince from Minsk,
             Married a beautiful,young twin from Pinsk.
             Found she wasn’t chaste.
             Threw her out posthaste!
             Learn this lesson from charming lovers.
             Judge not,a book by its false cover!

Maybe he should have picked a twin from Omsk, Lutsk, Kletsk, or Sletsk! (The first three are real places, actually). :) gw

Knowing you fairly well …I know you are wise in many areas. So I trust you on the citifies. Men can be taken in easily, by a gorgeous woman. As was the Prince, in this story. Women have their wily tricks and ways. Thank you for commeing. Pangir
