Woodpecker

A woodpecker just loves to tap
The moment they go for a nap
The wife laughs, "Tee hee!
You're not fooling me!
I know its another bum rap!"

Great job with this one! I was thinking of using woodpecker as my bird poem subject but did not think the judge would appreciate a naughty poem in that contest!

Woodpeckers are naturally naughty, making holes where there was none! Aloha! Rico

I was going to title this, "Rat-a-tat-tat" but since Soupers are writing about birds, and I like birds, and wooden peckers are the best kind. Aloha! Rico

Rico, you kept your sense of humor, despite Douglas looming near. All is well with you, I hope?

The only thing funnier than randy people wearing a mask is randy people wearing nothing! Aloha! Rico

Mrs. Woodpecker's comment is so funny, Rico! I don't know how you come up with these amazing limericks. Hope you and Connie didn't have much trouble from Hurricane Douglas. Stay safe and well, my friend. Hugs, Carolyn

Wood peckers are common in Dildoe, Bedfordshire, England! Douglas blew pictures of my walls and notes everywhere, but otherwise passed by like a lamb! Thank you for reading and commenting! Aloha! Rico
