He wailed, "Don't anyone ever tell me again, Get a life"
Limerick #6 12/31/02

The cattle always wanted to rove.
Their thoughts must have been of love,
So off they ran with hat and glove.
Now the herd is older, sits around the stove.

Here and now it takes at least a day or three or four.
Limerick #12

"And you know I'm slithering?"
"Aw No!" "I'm just too tired to get out of bed."
"Can't help it if I'm just about dead."
She replied. And with a look quite withering. |
