Miss Whippy

A young lady loved walnut whips

But they only lasted two licks

As she opened her jaw

All the men were in awe

And said, "does she do other tricks?"

I’ve been reading up on the history of Limericks, and there’s a right tussle going on about their origin and content. I concur with the view they should be bawdy and irreverent.
