A Kumquat in the Rain
A ludicrous limerick

There once was a man from Maine
who got it stuck in his brain
that his teeth would rot
if he ate a kumquat
on a Tuesday in the rain.

Great so beautiful
Great limerick! By coincidence, the kumquat are ripe this week in our neighborhood (central Florida), and I've been eating them noon and night. Will be sure to avoid Tuesdays in the rain. Haha. Thanks for the humorous limerick. The rhymes are excellent.
Really fun :) Congrats!
