Tune Averse

A whistler went outside to play; He got a bit carried away. While playing his whistle, He fell in some thistle; I heard that thing three miles away! A young whistle maker's gone daft! Seems he lost it while honing his craft. He upset his chances For further romances When he drilled the note holes in the shaft. A buxom young whistler, all that, Found her whistle impeded by fat. She had liposuction And an ample reduction, But now she's a little bit flat.

Superb limericks, Jeff. You have a real gift with this form, of course. They rhyme and flow perfectly. I have such a time with them!

Sharp penning, Jeff. Esp. that last stanza. Write on! ~ Gershon

thanks, we're actually making tin whistles (well, my son-in-law is) at my barn, so there's at least a small connection here :-)
