Poor Frosty was built upside down and quickly he’s talk of the town He’s not wearing his smalls so folks see his snowballs - his smile soon turns into a frown! When Santa learns of Frosty’s plight he orders some work late that night So his wife Mrs Clause knits Frosty some new drawers - but his ‘carrot’ doesn’t hang right! *drawers classed as one syllable as per the UK pronunciation of the word Both limericks 8,8,6,6,8 Christmas Limericks Old or New Contest Sponsored by Carolyn Devonshire Edited 11/30/18
