Sidney Beck Poet Limerick

It's Nice To Travel

IT’S   NICE   TO   TRAVEL

The president’s trip went so badly  
He wanted a drink very  madly
He ordered  his car
To the nearest bar
But  the tires were all flat, quite  sadly

So he called for his  747
The nearest  that he’ll get to heaven
When he asked for  some tea
They said sorry but we
Must  stop  first at a  seven  eleven

His tea bought, at last they got going
The strong brew  was pleasantly flowing,
As the plane’s nose came up
He up-ended  his  cup
And he flew without caring or knowing

Andrea Dietrich February 27, 2011 at 4:05 PM the middle stanza was a riot, although I must say, I like the president myself! However, it was very witty, just as limericks are meant to be!
