Sweaty limerick (how the prince found his bride)

a gal who was covered in sweat
wouldn't use 'the word' to win a bet.
nose in the air she drawled it slow
only horses sweat, women glow.
and the prince wed the gal he'd just met.

A limerick. May not be technically perfect. Perhaps even far from it, but it sure was fun! :)

Wrote this in response to the Sweaty limerick prompt by Madeleine Begun Kane

    This is priceless Padmavani! I will share it with my daughters, who hate to perspire, and will also find it extremely amusing!
    I have never been able to write in response to a prompt and think it takes a special kind of brilliance to do so. Well done!
