Toast

Willy Whipple was a bread baker
Whose wife thought him a faker.
She called his bread awful
Comparing it to offal.
So Willy did up and forsaker.

No, keep it. It's perfectly fine. This type is the bonehead limerick, a style favored by Edward Lear, right? Kind of nonsense but when you think about it, has more sense that what one initially credits it with. I myself am partial to limerick form, if you have noticed. hugs!

It's kind of you to comment, Kim. Thank you. As limericks go, maybe this one should be gone. hugs xxx
