A young lady named Mel
Runs an exceedingly seedy hotel,
Where a girl called Miss Bland
Takes respectable gentlemen by the hand,
Or so the tabloids tell!

An elderly client, known as Roger
A friendly, if dodgy, old codger
Could not understand
The lure of Miss Bland
But he really quite fancied the lodger
Thank you! I like the limerick. Its clever and made me smile. Best, Kevin
I wrote a few on my blog last week (There was an old poet called Lear). I like writing them. The strict formality of scan and rhyme allowing unbridled silliness really appeals. Your limerick also made me smile and writing a part 2 seemed like a good idea. I hope you don’t mind.

I have no idea what happened with the second, part-reply. Please feel free to expunge it. I would, but I have no idea how 😬
No problem. WordPress can behave in strange ways. I have commented on blogs, not had my comment appear, resubmitted it and then had both appear! I think sometimes it takes a while for the page to refresh which means a comment does not appear to have gone through when, in fact it has! All the best, Kevin
