Notes About The Poem

8/24/2024 for Famous Person or Poetry soup Poet Poetry Contest sponsored by Tania Kitchin

Joan of Arc

There was a lady named Joan of Arc.
Who, so sadly, was lit by a spark.
It's too bad that she died,
but let's see the bright side.
She magnificently glowed in the dark.

I guess that is "dark" humor :-) Thanks, Andrea, and I admit it - I'm a sick man.

Funny and sacrilegious. Quite a combination. Well done.

Good lines, David. Seeing the brighter side is just as funny as your response to Jan's comment.
