International Limerick Writers Month - my first contribution
Dean Whitbread initiated a month of limerick writing here
He wished to be the sole contributor but I had other plans.
Here is my first entry that I wrote about ten minutes ago.
An elephant from old Dungeness
Left his wife in a terrible mess
He packed up his trunk
And did a swift bunk
Now she's living off mustard and cress!!
more nonsense about mustard and cress from The Goon Show
The Mustard and Cress Shortage
Seagoon: Mr. Crun, British Railways want you to grow them six thousand acres of mustard and cress - in the Amazon.
Henry: Very well, I'll get my hat. Min!
Minnie: What did you say?
Henry: I'm just going to the Amazon.
Minnie: Be careful.
Henry: I'll be away for six years, Min.
Minnie: I'll put your dinner in the oven, Henry.
