Limerick Friday

Spike Smith had a menu criteria
His food had to drip with bacteria
He topped veggies with germs
Garnished soup with earthworms
It's no wonder he died of diphtheria

This came from our visit to a public restroom to wash hands. I had all three young men in there with me using soap and water and paper towels.

There was some mention of germs, and to entertain them I put on my huskiest old cockney woman voice and sang out:

"I go to restrooms to play with the germs!
And the backyard to make friends with worms!"

Owen was giggling and said..."Do the rest!"

There wasn't any more...I just made it up. He was disappointed, but I had a good start for a limerick.
