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 Date: 5/2/2015 10:49:00 AM Brilliant. But sometimes a one liner is more memorable than a narrative. Your limericks are great fun. Login to Reply Jack Ellison Date: 5/2/2015 12:35:00 PM You're a charmer, Miss Nan! Hugs, Jack xxx
