Willow, dear,
Your prompts, I fear
Have gone beyond a joke.
Reminders here
Bring on a tear
For any age-ing bloke.
Every prompt,
For weeks were swamped,
With leaky, wet suggestion.
Extinguishers
And waterers,
Old pipes for our attention.
‘But not your bed’,
She smugly said:
‘That’s not a wat’ry riddle!’
“Oh yes!” I cry,
“It’s empty. Why?”
“I'd gone to have a piddle!”
Prompted again by Magpie Tales

Guffaw, gigglesnort, Bwahahahahaha, lol, roflmao, grin :) What we see is a mere reflection of our inner needs and wants Stafford so you see, it's not the fault of the prompt.
ReplyDeleteSo YOU'RE the one who wrote those two volumes of Limericks I have on my shelf!
