What Comes In Dreams

There was a WoodenMan of old, Who possessed great knowledge I’m told, Was offered a handsome sum To keep him mum, But alas, he couldn’t be sold! While on tour in Australia, he happened upon A glorious sight! A rare beauty of pure silky wood oak A bit of mischief in her eyes as she Held his glance, The page turns… He met a fine lass down under Whose brain quite scorched Him with wonder With beauty that glowed From a heart pure as gold No man could put asunder! Limerick with Bridge: a collaboration created by James Marshall Goff and Paulette Calasibetta

It was quite a fun experiment. Jim had written a story about a dream of a WoodenMan. I enjoyed it and decided we should do something fun with it and he agreed. Hence our collective poetry. Thanks for stopping by. :)Paulette
