Limerick: At The Taxidermist

Rating: 5.0

Scene: A taxidermy shop, where a lady has just brought in her two pet squirrels, both of which died today.
The following conversation takes place: (the lady speaks first, then the taxidermist, then the lady again.)


I loved them so. You know, the bands
of love are strong. Everyone understands.

You loved them; that's what counted.
So did you want them mounted?

Oh, no, not that! Just holding hands!

The cryptogram has now been removed and the poem has been moved into the poem area. Poem Hunter has been adding soundtracks on the cryptograms and gibberish anyway.

Urdu poem? I don't have an Urdu poem! Did you mean the apparent gibberish in the poem area? That is actually a cryptogram in English and IT CAN BE SOLVED! I also do not have a Helen Reddy poem. I think you are referring to one of my mystery poets, who mentioned Helen Reddy in one of his/her poems.
