Toddler’s Play

There once was a home with two daughters.
Mother was sleeping.  Two adorned her!
Her lipstick took a trip.
Doorbell rang; Mom ran…zip!
Hysterical!  Lipstick-faced...caught her!

This is certainly a very good Limerick, Dane Ann. Haven't completed mine... But you are so good!! In my mind I picture this whole scene! Great job! Thanks for taking your time to read so many of my poems, Dane Ann! I want to say that I truly appreciate all your kindness and friendship. You have a heart of gold! I bet you already know that, but I need to tell you that, from my heart! Peace and much love, Audrey

Now this is one terrific limerick, Dane Ann!! I can just see the daughters being "creative" as they apply the lipstick. Very funny! Love you, Carolyn And I didn't know today was your birthday. Wish you had told me earlier! Hope it is a happy one!
