Charles Messina Poet Limerick

Notes About The Poem

The sponsor of the contest asked to use one of the following in our limericks. I cheated, I used all five. (plumber, teacher, chef, astronomer & poet)  Oops!

Geoff Jeff

A plumber, a teacher...and a chef 
Are all poets, and thier names are all geoff
Their astronomer, friends name 
Had sound just the same
But he spelled it J.E.F.F

Brandy Nicole January 4, 2019 at 11:42 PM Good thing for the different spelling, or they might have all got confused. :) When their names were all called at the same time. Lol. This is sooooo cute Charlie. Thanks for the smile this evening. ~ Brandy

Alexis Y. January 4, 2019 at 9:23 PM WoW! Charlie , You've penned a clever and witty limerick for the contest theme. As I finished reading I thought to myself, why didn't I think of that? I'm sure I will see you on the winner's list. I wish you the best of luck in the contest:-) Alexis

Robert L. Hinshaw January 4, 2019 at 8:02 PM Great creativity and wit here, Charlie! I expect to see it at the top of the winner's list. Glad you got a laff out of my entry for the contest. May only good be on you and your family this new year! - Bob

Caren Krutsinger January 4, 2019 at 12:06 AM Two plumber poems in a row, each a limerick. Hmmmmm This gives me pause. Both of them fun. Charles Messina January 4, 2019 at 4:30 AM :)
