On Day Six… #limerick

Posted on Sep 20, 2022 by TanGental

Esther has prompted with ‘neck’ and this is the result…

A furious God held the first scrotum

In front of his hapless factotum.

‘Why didn’t you check?

They’ve used turkey neck.

And what use is an opposable bum?’

About TanGental

My name is Geoff Le Pard. Once I was a lawyer; now I am a writer. I've published several books: a four book series following Harry Spittle as he grows from hapless student to hapless partner in a London law firm; four others in different genres; a book of poetry; four anthologies of short fiction; and a memoir of my mother. I have several more in the pipeline. I have been blogging regularly since 2014, on topic as diverse as: poetry based on famous poems; memories from my life; my garden; my dog; a whole variety of short fiction; my attempts at baking and food; travel and the consequent disasters; theatre, film and book reviews; and the occasional thought piece. Mostly it is whatever takes my fancy. I avoid politics, mostly, and religion, always. I don't mean to upset anyone but if I do, well, sorry and I suggest you go elsewhere. These are my thoughts and no one else is to blame. If you want to nab anything I post, please acknowledge where it came from.

    Reminder to oneself… NO attempting to drink beverages while reading one of Geoff’s limericks!

    Gotta be careful about the timing of a sip of coffee when reading your stuff.
