Haddock To Hake

I ponder on this till I ache:
a haddock who says he's a hake -
I guess it's his right
to think that despite
so many believe he's a fake...

Written 25th April for Constance's ache contest

Carolyn Devonshire Date: 6/5/2021 3:45:00 PM Ah, so many people pretend to be things they are not. Had to take pity on the haddock. If you see him, tell him he's welcome on my dinner table anytime. I've never even tasted hake. Had to look it up. Congrats on your win! Hugs, carolyn Login to Reply

Jennifer Proxenos Date: 4/25/2021 8:28:00 AM Oh so cute Jack - really fun, if he really insists that he is a hake, we will join the many and also think he's a fake! Well penned Jack, I enjoyed this limerick a lot! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer, Login to Reply

Sara Kendrick Date: 4/25/2021 8:06:00 AM I wonder who that Hake is? Is this a metaphoric work? Enjoyed reading this one which is a good contender for the contest. Way to go. Thanks for all the visits. Sara Login to Reply
