JUST BECOZ

Whether courage, a heart, or a brain
Their absence may cause you pain
Find the witch of the East
Or the wizard of Oz at least
The search for these things is insane

The munchkins may seem so cute
An observation you cannot refute
But when asked the way
All they would say
The yellow brick road is the route

Read the books by Frank L Baum
Despite each being a bit of a tome
You know how it feels
Just start tapping those heels
And say There’s no place like home

Howard, great limerick my friend. I'm not much of a reader but I might have to read one of Frank L. Baum's! Congratulations on your winning placement in my contest. Merry Christmas to you and your family! Charlie
