Caren Krutsinger Poet Limerick

Joe Tries To Get His Stimulus Check

Joe tried to get his stimulus check,
It wasn’t there and he said “oh, heck!”
Gawking at a man’s hand
Nearly fell in some sand,
And lost his footing off his own deck.

The man asked “Were you trying to see
What I was holding, Mr. McDee?”
Then he showed him his check.
And Joe muttered, “Oh, heck!’
I have not got one. How can this be?

Gershon Wolf April 25, 2020 at 9:41 PM Love the names you dream up, such as Mr. McDee! lol. Thanks, Caren. Caren Krutsinger April 26, 2020 at 6:35 AM Thank you my friend. All of my friends seem to have one; neither my husband or I have one though.

Kai Michael Neumann April 24, 2020 at 6:40 AM Very funny. Caren Krutsinger April 24, 2020 at 6:54 AM I enjoyed it too; so many have one. I do not and neither does my husband.
