Judy Ball Poet Limerick

A Legend In His Own Mind

There once was an angry old man,
Who thought he had the only plan.
He was smarter than most,
And of this he would boast.
He thought of himself as just grand.

The angry old man had a wife,
Whose life he oft filled with strife.
He described her as moody.
Just stupid and broody.
She told him to go get a life.

Ovidiu Bocsa November 8, 2016 at 11:41 AM The angry old man was me, By the time I felt clever and free. Then, I met you, a real Poetry My dear Judy, And so happy, I started to sing:" I feel pretty, oh so pretty! "I feel pretty and witty and bright..." Actually, I have not good voice But I keep my face in the light. So, that was my better choice. Judy Ball November 8, 2016 at 2:58 PM Thank you so much Ovidiu my friend.
