~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cupid's arrow, sharp and sly, Hit us both, oh my, oh my! Love's a comedy, we've found, In laughter, our hearts are bound, Together, under love's blue sky.

Good humor and a special time for sentimental verses for Valentines Day! One can never have too many hugs or "Laugh" too often. I believe laughter is quite essential for a good relationship. Perfect!

Cupids arrow has bounded many a woman and man. How many arrows do you get.

Sara Etgen-Baker
Date: 1/28/2024 4:17:00 PM

thanks, Paul, for the visit and comments. I suppose we get as many arrows as we need...or is that a rhetorical question? :-)

The Situation

Date: 1/27/2024 8:50:00 PM

Some times I wonder, can a woman have a mans perspective.You are a recipient of love. And was . But Valentine's is where women do the calling. This is a wonderful calling. Like saying Yes I'll marry you.

Awwn, this is such a cute limerick dear Sara.. I especially love how you've described the Cupid's arrow and love bounded with laughter.. "Cupid's arrow, sharp and sly", "Love's a comedy, we've found", "In laughter, our hearts are bound" Indeed, that's the true heartwarming bliss of love.. Finding comfort and friendliness through affection for the beloved reflects pure joy! Many best wishes to you for the contest as well, sending light & poetic hugs :) have a beautiful Sunday..

thanks for your sweet visit, Hiya. I'm delighted you enjoyed this Limerick...I don't write them often, kind of uncomfortable with the form/concept...thanks for the poetic hugs and light. Have a splendid day, hugs, Sara
