In Response To Kim and Jack

The Royal limerick kingdom of Jack Came under heavy aerial attack Hellfire’s from a drone Knocked Jack from his throne And now he lies flat on his back. But our Kim she wanted to be queen And she done something quite mean Got rid of Jack and Tom With a giant limerick bomb United Nations considered it obscene. But others were after the crown And wanted to take Queen Kim down There was limerick queen Jan From the Royal Isle of Man Headed to the scene for a showdown.

Hi Tom, I agree with the other's below, this is a witty and entertaining string of limericks. I know Jack, Kim and adored this. You are very good at the limerick form:-)Alexis

Thanks Alexis, it all started when Jack read one of my limericks', he thought I was trying to oust him, then Kim picked up and wrote one and it escalated lol You'll be happy to know a truce has been declared until after Christmas lol.

Oooh, it sounds like a showdown akin to the gunfight at the OK Corral is headed our way. Like Jan, Jack and Kim, I enjoy writing limericks. Sometimes it's nice to step away from the heavy verse and just have fun. Had some good laughs reading your limerick, Tom! Hugs, Carolyn
