Hello Regina ... certainly opposite contrasts in your limerick, and there's one mighty hint - thanks Regina - Lindsay

Something pretty and pretty ugly. For Bob to get such a reputation their must be mostly bad in him or he’d be thought more curmudgeon or gruff. Funny!

Poor Uncle Bob! He needed candy too; great end rhymes though.
