Notes About The Poem

June 28, 2025, entered in Tania Kitchin's Summer Funny Limerick contest

********************************************************************************

Time's Up

           
Mom and Dad dodged the mid-July sun—
in the shaded pool, having such fun.
   Then their three little kids
    started blowing their lids:
”That’s OUR pool. Please go buy yourselves one!”

Andrea Dietrich Date: 6/30/2025 11:17:00 AM It sounds like it was one of those small plastic kiddy pools then. Great humor and limerick meter Login to Reply Janice Canerdy Date: 7/1/2025 5:09:00 PM Yes. Thanks so much, Andrea.
