There once was a young American named Matthew

Who to which the concept of decency was very new

He loved to dance in the buff

Shaking and wiggling his stuff

Until he was arrested and his neighbours did sue

Thanks for reading!

Author's Notes: I make no real apologies on this one. I was going after those sweet sweet rhymes and those sweet sweet laughs!

Here is info about Matthew's challenge for limericks:

Also, I heard back from Vocal support that they are definitely reading the Vocal editor word count. So, I now need to adjust all my pieces to make sure it reads as 50 for the Love in 50 Words Challenge. Just thought people might wanna know. I have just went through all mine to make sure they read 50 words on Vocal, to be sure.
