Let's Limerick Today

A Poem Full Of Fun

Once upon a poet from Japan
he crafted a poem full of fun
on the audition day
he couldn't find a way
to speak about his forgotten pun.

The Comment Queue

I have a post to scan and wade through
I brought my tools and the books I knew
So proud of my phone
trendy to the bone
I am still stuck in the comment queue.

Sane Under The Rain

Once there was a girl who lost her brain
she hoped that one day she would be sane
She found it in a safe
now she could feel quite safe
She spent all her life under the rain.

A Cat To Scat

There was a man from Connecticut
he dreamt to have a dog and a cat
One day, he saw a mouse
with a cat in his house
He held his broom and started to scat.

September Girl

There was a girl born in September
her Summer days she could remember
by Fall, would she recall?
as her head had a fall
She lost season, reason and temper.

Fast And Hilarious

There was a man who was quite curious
couldn't find his car, he was furious
He went out for a walk
with his fast friend and dog
He found his dog fast and hilarious.

I admire those who write humor...your poems are hilarious ..each character comes alive in your poems--each so uniquely special..an evocative write. You have aced this form and aced the art of wordplay. Much enjoyed from start to finish. Most definitely a FAVE for me, Besma.
