My one and only limerick
Venus de Milo by adewpearl




We all know the statue of Venus,
considered a work of sheer genius.
Though I feel some alarm
at her dismembered arm,
I am happy she hasn't a penis.

Author Notes
For those who follow the syllable count from FS contests, I know the final line of this limerick has 10 syllables - many of Edward Lear's limericks follow this same pattern.
For those who wonder why the heck I'm writing a risque/bawdy limerick at all when there is not even a contest, please direct all derision at Tonydem and Amfunny, who are trading naughty limericks back and forth and both told me they expected me to write a classy penis poem. They are both pushy people, and it was just easier to do it than have them keep annoying me! LOL This is, of course, about the Venus de Milo statue on view at the Louvre.
