The Sexagenarian

The Sexagenarian was said
To celebrate birthdays in bed.
The pleasure was mine
When he turned 69
With a party that'd make you blush red!

What's going oner there in Maine? Are they putting something in the water? Did they misspell Maine Squeeze?
Whatever's going down, so to speak, I want me some!

*giggle* Garnet likes to write naughty limericks once in a while. She can't help herself.

Nice play on words! It took me a couple of reads to see what you were saying.

Garnet said...

Thanks, Ben. That's the way I intended it. ;)

I always wanted to write limericks but I get to the third line and any rhyme that should be there, isn't! :-)

I'll let you in on a secret, Beggar. How To Write a Limerick: 1) think of a subject. 2) Think of 3 rhyming words to work with, one for the 1st & 2nd lines, and one for the last. 3) Think of a cute couplet to place between 2nd & last line. Works every time!
