John Gondolf Poet Limerick

Notes About The Poem

I have to say I have the utmost respect for Lin, but I just couldn't pass up this opportunity...hahaha

In Response To Having My Funny Bone Tickled

While reading my posts I heard some ruckle
Lin Lane thinks my comments are "honeysuckle"
I'll say this to you
It's better than poo
Methinks perhaps you are trying to truckle

Tom Cunningham May 7, 2018 at 3:09 PM Haha great response John, but I've a feeling this lady won't truckle. (had to look up the meaning too) Looking forward to the other reponses too. Tom. Lin Lane May 8, 2018 at 8:42 AM You both have my admiration and HUGS John Gondolf May 7, 2018 at 3:27 PM Thanks, Tom, you are so right, Lin is a strong lady and she WILL NOT truckle. John

Lin Lane May 7, 2018 at 2:32 PM Your comments are honeysuckle sweet, John. I had to look up "truckle" and it means a wedge of cheese, so should i assume you thought my limerck was cheesy? Ha ha your comeback is appreciated. ;-) Lin Lane May 8, 2018 at 8:41 AM Thank you, John and Tom. Tom Cunningham May 7, 2018 at 3:09 PM Never cheesy Lin, all good fun. John Gondolf May 7, 2018 at 2:49 PM Truckle also means to submit or yield weakly, but I had to go half way down the page to find that definition. I really enjoyed your limerick and I am honored that you "called me out." All the best my friend. John
