604 : A Good Deed


Mad Kane has a regular limerick challenge.
She provides the first line,
the rest is up to us.
Here's a clean one.

A woman had done a good deed
By helping her neighbour to weed.
But, as she couldn't discern
A rose from a fern,
The results were not guaranteed.

  2. Imagine having a neighbour who offered to weed your garden...the shock would be be too great... I would be pushing up daisies:)

  3. A woman had done a good deed
    by helping her neighbor in need.
    but the woman's husband appeared
    and handed her a beer;
    rest of the day was a dream.
