Flimflam,the limerick

Flimflam’s an under used word,

As most people think it’s absurd.

But it enriches our tongue

It sings its own song.

It’s the lightest word I’ve ever  heard.

But some people won’t say flimflam

Just ‘cos it rhymes with goddam.

So never say pluck,

Or you’re down on your luck.

Or  the saintly will send you to spam.

I must admit I am surprised

That flimflam in a  limerick’s disguised

My unconscious mind

Always manages to find

A rhyme for most   words  we’ve devised

How to dress

Coot1_KB

They sa the French are the most stylish women

And we should emulate them

But  given the lack of time,it might be better to follow

Seven simple rules

1.Get washed  and wash your hair

2 Get some decent yet bright underwear

3 Never wear anything too small

4 Never wear anything gigantically big

5.Keep warm in winter with a dashing scarf [ and your clothes of course]

6.Wear a big hat in the summer plus sunscreen

7.Never wear anything that stops you from running ,climbing over fences,riding a bike ot leaping up in joy.

See, it’s easy!!
