Honest Lee

There once was a golfer called, Honest Lee
Who in all honesty, lived honestly
He’s in the hall of fame
Some due to that acclaim
And also by what he did, on his tee.

You've got the wit and rhythm down for writing Limerick, my friend. I enjoy reading your poetry and your light poems. A poet friend in Texas, Bill

Hi David! It’s odd, but I feel I have known you all my life! It’s too bad we live on opposite ends of the continent. You must be a blast to have coffee and chat with. Sometimes with poetry we don’t understand,it’s not necessary .All we have to do is”get” them. Like playing baseball! I throw you the ball not necessary to analyze. I think of being with you in the Smokies, having some really good coffee and just being! Love, Pangie I replied once, oops. This is a double.)))

Coffee and a chat would be great. Who knows what's possible, yet no travel plans.

It sounds possible, but probably not in golf.
