Up To His Arse In 'Gators!

When the skydiver leapt from his plane What he saw below to his great disdain Were 'gators flexing their jaws Expecting grub for their maws To pursue this sport he must be insane Robert L. Hinshaw, CMSgt, USAF, Retired © All Rights Reserved Placed No. 8 in Caroline Devonshire's "To Die For" Limerick Contest - July 2010

Yep, I agree. Only someone suffering from insanity would jump out of a perfectly good airplane. Congrats on your win Bob, and thanks again.

Robert, it isn't a queston of crocs or gators. I thought I was looking at sticks in the water and couldn't understand the danger. If i had been that guy, I'd have perished for certain.

Robert, is that what the picture was about? I think I have bad eyes. I could not get that. But I am happy to read your fun poem. LUv, Andrea
