Walking the Dog

I had a dog that did not bark, one day I took it to the park. It stopped beside the plants and started eating ants; a passer by said "nice aardvark". A funny Limerick - Any Theme Poetry Contest, placed 3rd Sponsored by: Tania Kitchin Date wrote: 30th May 2022

Funny write, Terry. I’ve just published a book of kids poems with two anteater poems, so this particularly tickled my funny bone. Congrats. Terry

Thank you, Terry; I was desperate to get Aardvark in a poem somehow, I just think the word is so amusing.

Congratulations on your win. I love this fun/cute dog limerick. Guess he is easier to take care of and less costs on food/vet bills. Have a great/blessed day.......................
