Waikiki Wipeout

A surfer who suffered a fall Found a float and for help he did call. As the drama unfurls, It seems that curls* will be curls, And buoys will be buoys, after all. *INCYDK (in case you didn't know): For all you non-surfer dudes and dudettes, a "curl" is the curl or flip that forms as the top of a wave breaks.

Even though it sounds absurd, I enjoyed reading your play on words, your curls and buoys, girls and boys, it's the cleverest limerick I've ever heard. Nice one Jim.
