5 Limeraikus

Again and again and again, and then is when again, it’s again ... A nurse (to be terse) made things worse. I see, if free this she, would reverse At night, a ship’s light wasn’t bright. It’s glow, more low can’t go – though it might! We flow, to and fro, fast and slow. We sway this way like so, off we go. I fear that it’s clear, there’s none here. “No ale” I wail “I’m frail without beer.”

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style (combining limericks and haikus). Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

Love your use of internal rhymes, every poem is brimming with them. They add such a wonderful lightness of touch to an already gentle form. My favorite's the last one - been there -, but they're all really nice.

Thank you, I'm not sure that many "haiku purists" would approve though.
