The Last Time I had an Ice-Cream Cone

One recess long past, I thought I was slick
and offered a lass my Drumstick to lick.
I fast saw my mistake;
she gulped down her Shortcake
and made a shiv with her strawberry stick!

A little limerick

As Morris Bishop wrote:

The limerick is furtive and mean;
You must keep her in close quarantine,
Or she sneaks to the slums
And promptly becomes
Disorderly, drunk and obscene.

Thanks for stopping in.

Lopsided Annie had a diagonal

Lopsided Annie had a diagonal fanny
and an arsehole that was slightly askew,
whilst taking a pee she squirted 'er knee
and she lifted 'er hat when she blew,,,,, phew.
