We divers were told by a man named Gus
When ocean diving, take a feather with us
Tickle the inside of the spout
of the whale to get spit out
He said whales don't like diver-tickle-itis
I'm planning to put this into my May showcase, listed with my poems. Thanks. questions? ask. Thanks. bri :)
to MyPoemList. bri :) p.s. Let me know, please, when there is a news event featuring a man (or woman) swallowing a whale.
I doubt that will happen. Actually the whale didn't swallow the man, he was in its mouth.
Very clever punch line! I'll try to remember to take feathers with me when I go swimming... wait, that's diving. I went diving once and it was not pleasant. My ears didn't like the pressure and bothered me the next two months! I did get to swim with and pet a manatee on the surface, though!
Well thanks, Wes. The opportunity presented itself, and it turned out to be limerick too.
