Notes About The Poem

Cb Tribute Contest One-Jan Allison

To honor Jan in her own style...

I have a sweet friend whom I shall call Jan
She writes limericks like no one else can
finding humor in poop
sharing it with the soup
but it's stinky, Jan,  please turn on a fan!!

Thanks so much, Luloo. Your writings are equally as good as Jan's and you're both very versatile in your styles. This limerick immediately popped into my head, but if I'd bee allowed to write for all of you, I certainly would have.

I'll always support my friends here, Andrea. And... thank YOU for liking this one so well. It's so easy to write about Jan because she accepts good humor and teasing as graciously as she gives it.

Hi Lin! I'm running a cold at the moment and I've lost my sense of smell, so I suppose I'm not getting all the benefit of this witty Limerick:) Pleased to see you posting again, even if only sporadic. Take care and enjoy the weekend. Regards // paul

Hello Sage. I think you just told me my limerick stinks. lol I'll let you get by with that one this time, because it was meant to stink. Thanks for always seeing the lighter side of fun.

All is quite well with me, Jan. I saw Andrea's contest and had to honor you in a way I thought most befitting. I'm so happy that you approve. Now where is that exhaust fan?
