Clyde stood for hours beneath the mistletoe But not a gal took notice of his woe The ladies just tittered As by him they skittered His fly was unzipped and ALL was aglow

As I wrote you a few days ago, this should be first place! You are a master at limericks. “All aglow” fantastic, and humorous imagery, tied up in a bright, majestic, Christmas bow! Pangie
