Notes About The Poem

This is a true story from my high school basketball days...

A Prankster

I knew a prankster, a mean-hearted bloke
Who liked to play wicked practical jokes
   He'd empty your locker
   And wouldn't restock her
Then try to sell you an expensive cloak

:) I wonder why no one ever tried to stop the thief. Very cute limerick, Gershon! Hugs, Carolyn

You know, no matter how often this character pulled off his stunt, every one of us was surprised when it happened to him. Why we didn't gang up on him, I just don't know... It's a long time ago, about 55 years or so. Happy Thursday, Carolyn. Smiles, Gershon

Your limericks are such fun, Gershon. I really enjoy them-they are always so witty. :)

Glad you like the limericks, Evelyn. I'll try to keep 'em coming. Chuckles and Grins, Gershon

Good one, Gershon. You don't see me writing limericks, I am just not witty . Enjoyed reading. Hugs Eve.

Oh, Eve... Don't sell yourself short... Try a couple limericks. You may uncover a latent comedienne. (Ask my wife: I'm not funny either. lol). Thanks for your support. Smiles for miles, Gershon
