A Strain On the Brain

Happiness reigns but not when it rains Strange language, this english, it's hard to explain A doctor can save your life Doctoring the truth leads to strife So if you don't know english, it's a strain on the brain

Ha! Excellent, my friend! One of your most clever limericks. I liked how you bring up "doctor" and "doctoring" as your example ... I pity the foreigner who is struggling to learn our language with it's mostly arbitrary rules! "I before E except after C? Weird."

"I before E except after C? Weird" Seems I've known this one FOREVER... think I was two years old! LOL

Hubby says I'm crazy enough to be a strain on the brain... But he's always laughing when he says it... Then he gives me a new Dragon story idea... Ain't love Grand!
