Line Gauthier Poet Limerick

Daily Dose of Legalese

Andrew was a wealthy lawyer's son 
Began each day with his morning runs
Circumstantial evidence
Disguised as benevolence 
Etches daily naughty legal puns



AP: 3rd place 2025, 3rd place 2022

Hugs, Carolyn Line Gauthier January 9, 2019 at 1:49 PM Thank you so much, Carolyn, for your most appreciated visit and compliment. This one was giving birth after extremely long and hard labor... but I didn't give up.

Tom Cunningham January 9, 2019 at 6:59 AM These limericks are getting harder with certain rules applied, well written Line. Good luck. Tom Carolyn Devonshire January 9, 2019 at 12:13 PM That's what I thought too when reading of the "alphabetical" requirement, but it really wasn't that hard. Just made the challenge more of a brain teaser. Line Gauthier January 9, 2019 at 10:46 AM Absolutely, Tom. What a challenge!
