In My Bath

While relaxing in my bath and sipping at my gin
(I know, I know it's naughty, but just a little sin),
he came in and looked at me, then said with quite a leer
"Your back looks so alluring, d'you want it scrubbed my dear?"
I said "I'm almost speechless" (perhaps it was the gin)
"but who the devil are you and how did you get in?"
Illustrated by my friend Jeff Bowers
Did I manage to make you smile?

I am sure that gin made you ask that question. Who knows. That must have been your husband
Great drawing there. I wonder if your friend had you in mind while doing that. Definitely a sin

@jaboUK All your limericks are just figments of your imagination. If wishes were horses beggars would ride kind of thing sometimes.
