Floating Candies

In the aquamarine tranquil sea,
a  huge torpedo ,shot right at me,
super King was its size,
stinky scent of  dead mice,
Brown spots on my new  white bikini.


Charma

(Not for the contest,inspired by Caroline's limerick's  sea contest..and by a true 
story,twisted to a tale:)


Ps.I don't know if this passes for a limerick,If it does,this would be my first:)


(I could see the relief on the red cheeked boy's face and feel his Victory over
my death:)

Charma, this is quite the "true" tale. My goodness! And yes, I would say this is a limerick. You have the meter pretty good, correct number of syllables and the rhyming pattern all in place. You have done your first limerick! Glad you liked my Charle one. Luv, Andrea
