Jack Ellison Poet Limerick

Economical Are Limericks

Narratives are fine but use too many words
Economical are limericks with nouns and verbs
Frugal they are
Less wasteful by far
At my age, too much thinking is for the birds

Nandita Das May 2, 2015 at 10:49 AM Brilliant. But sometimes a one liner is more memorable than a narrative. Your limericks are great fun. Jack Ellison May 2, 2015 at 12:35 PM You're a charmer, Miss Nan! Hugs, Jack xxx
