Nette Onclaud Poet Limerick

Karaoke Past Midnight--Wbm

My neighbor Mike loves karaoke
Who sings off-tune a Hokey Pokey;

          Grinds he with delight
          But it's twelve of night...

Irked, my alarm whips that voice croaky.

Lyva Marty August 14, 2019 at 2:21 PM Superfine piece! Ditto, those night crooners belt pitchy songs without regard for people sleeping.

Mystic Rose Rose August 13, 2019 at 5:03 PM I totally agree, Karaoke should be in public places. Here in Toronto, we have it in legions across the City, Aldo and I go most every night, but at home I sing low, lol, nice write Nette, gl in the contest
