How Strange

Nichole was proud to own a brand- new car
He showed it to his close friend at the bar
Michael was from country side
He had never travelled wide
All he does is going to the bazaar

"What is the name of your car", asked Michael
"Forgot its name, starts with ‘T'," said Nichole
"Oh my God, What a strange car! 
Never heard of it so far.
Your car starts with Tea, others, with petrol"!

Valsa What an interesting limerick! It's about two friends, Michael and Nichole, and the miscommunication that happens over Nichole's new automobile. The comedic muddle over the car's name and the lighthearted conversation between the two protagonists were nicely represented. The informal tone of the poem's wording is reminiscent of a chat between friends.

Dear Valsa, your poem is so much fun! The contrast between city & country (Nichole showing off vs. Michael's innocence) is hilarious. "Tea vs. petrol" is perfect! Love your playful twist on a classic joke. You're a clever poet! - Blessings, Daniel

Hi Valsa, Nice pun in your limerick! Maybe a car won't start with 'Tea';, but it helps me get started in the morning. J :)
