Polar Bear Swim

Anyone for a swim? Actually, some people did go in for a Polar Bear swim on January 1.

But there are crazy people in all parts of the world. This limerick is for all those crazy people who went into the freezing water that day and froze their buns off.

*** I did not post a photo of those “brave”? swimmers here.

 

There once was a man who was dim,

And went for a wintery swim,

He said, “I’m not whiny,

Except that my hiney,

Is paying the price for my whim.”

Antler Ride

 

I heard the bells ring Christmas Day

As joyfully I chewed away,

The reindeer said, “WHO

On my antlers does chew?”

“I’m guilty,” was all I could say.

 

 

“I’m leaving,” the reindeer announced,

“Come down or you’ll surely get bounced.”

“No, I can hang on,

For the time that we’re gone,”

I foolishly squeaked and pronounced.

 

 

I shivered and held on so tight,

This trip might just cause me a fright,

The wind whistled past,

We were going so fast,

“Merry Christmas to all and goodnight.”
