Be Sure To Reassure

Gads. I have ten messages to answer
that I received from other different
poets yesterday.

What we should do is be sure to reassure
Someone who up to can always measure,
What they want,
During the hunt,
And compliments they are sure to treasure.

Jim Horn


Give them compliments they will treasure.

Oh no.

Thank you for your wonderful poems. We only 
allow 10 poems posted per 24hr period so that 
more poems are read. Thanks again for your 
wonderful poetry. In the meantime, please 
comment on the poetry of others. Having a
hard time doing that and answering comments
send to me at same time. Oh, well. 

Mueller Bio on TV last night was Great. Comey's
ought to be great also next Sunday. We need to
write a book. 

Confirm Either Germ Or Sperm

We came to realize that we must confirm,
Maybe it possibly was some kind of germ;
Not quite sure;
Source not pure;
After more supportive evidence is sperm.

Like your limerick. Really, Jim, it's crazy to be concerned about the number of poems you are posting every day. Nobody cares about this. But I am happy you got many comments returned to you. It's a nice reassurance for all poets. By the way, I never want to post more than one poem a day because surely the first ones I post wil lget ignored and only the last one will get responses.

The more poems you write the more likely you are to write one someone is interested in or hit a nerve. I may only receive one comment but it may be a great one. Also, who commented is also important. It is interesting to see which of my poems were the most popular.

Obviously, subject matter, content and meaning have an affect on how a person thinks about a poem. Listening to Zuckerberg in Senate right now. Information distribution and dissemination are very interesting. He will have to check with his team and get back with us.

I like your cap in the avatar. My father used to wear a cap like that...your limericks are lethal...love 'em. So very funny and sharp as a whip.

Aha. My first comment from you. Sometimes we need a whip to whip things into place with. Trouble, double and bubble. Basis for my next poem. Whatever gets Trump into most trouble, hope he does it.
