I'M Stumped!

Why would someone fall in love with a stump I submit that there may be such a chump It seems so very bizarre But I suppose that there are Some blokes as gullible as Forrest Gump © Entry for Matt Caliri's "I Fell In Love With A Tree Stump" Contest

Funny Limerick, Bob! Enjoyed the read this late afternoon. And thank you for your kind comment! The Bavarian Alps are a lovely scenery winter. I myself have lived some years in Frankfurt am Main and still like the place.Now I am living in Zittau, the most south-easterly city of Germany and only walks away from the Polish and Czech border. Also an interesting and nice place! All the best and have a nice week! Viele Gruesse, Gert

Outstanding entry, Chief. Enjoyed. Good luck. Just able to get back to the computer. Been having back problems. Currently taking PT for it twice a week. Not able to sit at the computer too long without it getting sore! Sleeping hasn't been too much fun either, trying to find a comfortable position to lie in. Oh well it's slowly getting better. Have a great week. Ralphie
