I love the limerick. There are no pussy-willow plants where armadillos live. I know what cools them off. That is a sweet armadillo lady. Great work. Good luck in the contest.

Not a bad limerick, but I think that your syllables may be off. I think that the lines that are supposed to have 10 only have 9. However, I know different people count them differently, so it could be me. Thanks for sharing, Brent.

    Thanks for reviewing. I find that syllables are less important than the rhythm.

You made me laugh, not just smile. I am from Texas and I can easily imagine this type of "Southern Comfort". I loved your play of words. You got my vote partner!

    Thanks a lot.

    Apparently you are one of the few who can imagine.... Do I have to put pussy in capital letters, do you think?

We BBQ the rascals in east Texas. Not hard to do when having nothing to eat sometimes. Mexicans love them. Just kidding. Luck in the contest. I hope you win.

This is really well written and funny (and suggestive)!

You've made great use of alliteration with fine 'frigerating and plump pussy (willow!), and your rhyming is well done.

This is a great entry for the contest. Best of luck. Alana

    Thanks, Alana

    Apparently my suggestive wording is a bit too subtle for many reviewers - should I have put pussy in big capitals do you think?
reply by acerisestory on 16-Aug-2014
    Maybe :) It really was a good write, Steve. Alana

An animal limerick? Yikes. That's hard. But ... you pulled it off well. You even got a slight chuckle out of me. Thanks!
