Peep PEEP peep peep PEEP I'll go CRAZY This cricket I'm calling him Zainey He PEEP peep peep PEEPS I can't get my sleep My brain's become foggy and hazy!

You are turning into a master with these limericks, one of the hardest things is the meter and you are very good at that! We don't have crickets where we are.. but we do play cricket!

Thank you for reading and commenting Olive Eloisa. I agree with you that limerick is not my favorite form either. But at times, it seems I need a little lightness in my otherwise emotional thoughts :) Thank you so much for your encouraging words! Best, Judy

So funny. Yeah, if one can only hear this dang cricket while trying to sleep, that can be really difficult to deal with. (As an insomniac , I well know)

Hello Arturo. I loved your comment ... a soloist!! That made me laugh. The whole orchestra can be heard in the spring and summer during the evenings making beautiful symphonies :) Thanks for reading. Best, Judy

I can only imagine that Judith. I enjoyed your cute, funny poem. Although not so funny for you if you aren't getting sleep! Take care :)
