Why I Loved Cds Poems a Crumb On My Pie Chart

Abusive soul who tormented my heart I didn’t wait for us to drift apart I found inner strength at last So don’t look at me aghast You’re merely a crumb on my heart’s pie chart A defumigator removed your scent Into the trash all your hunting boots went And those ghastly deer “trophies” Ablaze with your spoiled green cheese Your firearms too in the bonfire were sent Valentine, let me give it to you straight Goodwill came by for the very last crate Maker’s Mark* for the homeless Now that’s ironic justice Hope your new home in the tent is just great You wrecked my car and destroyed my credit So you got off easy from where I sit Not that you had much to lose Just hair, weight, someone to use Cupid aims, may your hemorrhoids get hit! Copyright © Carolyn Devonshire | Year Posted 2012 I faved this poem because it depicts Carolyn's unique style of writing and her witty humor. It was for an ex-lover valentine contest, which she did place. She won countless contests using various forms, she is a very talented and accomplished poet. Her poetry will forever live on, as she will in spirit form. I will miss you sweet angel.

You are very kind to repost Carolyn's poetry. She had quite a sense of humor and a way to express feelings. This tribute is very kind!

Hello Cecilia ... certainly along the lines of Carolyn's humour. The limerick chain itself is a true act of revenge indeed - thank you Cecilia - Lindsay

I will start looking for Carolyn tribute poems today so I can post the list quickly when my "uncontest" closes out by next weekend. (so, I'm only on 8th poem I am able to locate of Carolyn's. I think I better just finish this next weekend. it is proving not as easy as I expected. Anyway, I am glad to see someone showed Carolyn's humorous side. She was a great fan of limericks and she sure let the bloke of this limerick HAVE IT. Thanks for sharing this, Cecila!
