Notes About The Poem

I wanted to write a Limerick using the name Rafferty. But I thought to myself what could rhyme with this name, I went to rhyme zone and hit pay dirt. At least in my mind I thought so . Enjoy:-) Alexis

A Man Called Rafferty

There was an old timer named Rafferty
Who hated his middle name Mcclafferty
              So he said he had none
             Folk thought it was for fun
But get this his last name was Mcclaugherty

Andrea Dietrich January 14, 2019 at 3:24 PM good job getting the rhymes in. Don't you hate it when a word has no rhymes except for rare names? I once tried to use my name Andrea in a limerick. Doesn't quite work!! Alexis Y. January 14, 2019 at 4:48 PM Good thing Texas rhymes with lexis or I would have been screwed lol!
