A rascal up north, poet Ken,
had retired one night to the den.
He woke to the stares
of six angry bears
and fought them all off with his pen.

I always love to read limericks, but cannot seem to write one, my efforts are always just plain stupid. Carolyn Devonshire asked me to submit a limerick. I came up with this - A rumpety tum ta tum A rumpety tumpety tum A dippity dee and a dippity doo Go rum rum rumpety tum - Love, daver P.S. I like this one mucho.
