Silly Woman

There was a silly woman from Detroit Who at everything was adroit She couldn't ev'n boil an egg She just kept them in a keg And then she threw them like a quoit. Dorian Petersen Potter aka ladydp2000 copyright@2014 10.21.2014

Was she adroit in throwing her eggs like quoits? she was, as you said, then she was not silly hahahahaha. she was not fond of eggs. I played ringtoss in my childhood on a little hillock and "Jack fell down and broke his crown". I broke my two front teeth. However, I am fond of eggs. Thank you D. Love.
