There was a young lady called Rose,
Who played Chopin etudes with her toes.
When they asked, "why your feet?"
She replied, "you can't beat
Them, when all of your fingers are froze."

Excellent. Nothing like a good limerick.
ReplyDeleteK
And they're short, Kay. So much easier.
DeleteBravo! Encore!
ReplyDeleteThank you, what did you do with yours?
DeleteNimble and quite skillful...
ReplyDeleteThanks, Berowne.
DeleteGreat limerick! Well done!
ReplyDeleteYou're very kind, Kathe.
DeleteFrivolous and fun ..I like it!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mary.
DeleteFun!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteOh absolutely, and we sure know lots about that these last couple of months!
ReplyDeleteDon't we just!
DeleteI think my Mum would have told me off if I'd tried that on our piano. But then I never had such pretty feet. And I couldn't play Chopin. But apart from that..... Now you'll tell me off for starting sentences with conjunctions.
ReplyDeleteThat's the kind of rule you can break once you've learnt it, GB. I do it all the time....
DeleteBrrrrrrrr avo.
ReplyDeleteVerrrrrry clever. Thank you!
DeleteI suppose it would be better exercise than sitting and playing with her hands.
ReplyDeleteWhy, Patsy? I'm intrigued.
DeleteAwesome limerick! I love to see a little form in my poems! Bravo!
ReplyDeleteThank you,
DeleteThe grammarian in me had to come up with another offering (but it's too much like yours to submit it at Magpie Tales):
ReplyDeleteA pianist, Heidi has chosen
To make music in lederhosen.
When the cold North wind wind blows
She plays Bach with her toes
Because all of her fingers are frozen.
Very good! Why not sumbit it? There are lots of y serious ones. We need to help keep the balance!
DeleteYup! Fingers do have the tendency to stiffen up!
ReplyDeleteLike now. It is freeeezing.
DeleteFunny limerick!
ReplyDeleteHa! I certainly feel froze these days! But my toes aren't that talented!
