Intrusion In the Fray:Response To Tom

Forgive intrusion in the fray I'm making comments today Tom's limericks, three were cute as can be But of Kim and Jack, I must say..... We all know how well Kim can write She graces each page of the site But limerick queen Jan is a machine There's no cause to argue or fight (all done in fun) Limerick's have a syllable count Ya can't use just any ol amount Jack uses too many His words aplenty It's a problem he must surmount It's the same with Shakespeare's sonnet No matter whose name is on it There's one Scotland Yard And only one Bard No imitators, doggone it Don't get stalled with rhyme and meter Sometimes prose can read much sweeter Write what's in your heart Poetry is art Pick up your pen and don't teeter No showdowns here; we're having fun Put away your slingshot and gun Not calling the law Just havin' a jaw Don't run me out of town...I'm done
