Laugh Loser

There was a stand-up joke maker
Whose act was a crowd shaker.
She was highly hilarious
But found to be nefarious.
Now her fans in hordes forsaker.

Not a sailor myself nor a true lover of the sea, although I live walking distance from the Atlantic. Like the wordplay in the last line "forsake." Takes imagination to do that, you know. Enjoyed reading it. / M

I'm grateful, Maurice, for your kind comment. You write limericks as well as anyone I know, and so your response is especially gratifying. All the best.

Very good one Paul. Sadly this may well be true too.
