Rhonda Johnson-Saunders Poet Limerick

Bed Sores - For Wit of Twain Contest

He spends one more day in his bed.
To-do-lists run all ‘round his head.
Noon came and then passed,
he’s still on his ass.
A hard day of work, he most dreads!


“If man had created man, he’d be ashamed of his performance.” – Mark Twain
