Litterally Absurd

A dog by the side of the road
Whelped out her cute little load
A copper who saw
Reeled off the law
Cited for littering I’m told

Thanks Roy! We share that love for springer spaniels. I used to breed them. Great dogs!

OMG, you are SO good at these!!! I wrote one of the animal poems last night and felt so stupid. I simply could not think of anything very funny to say. It took me an hour to write four simple lines and still was not nearly as good as this limerick (I did not post it yet).

I'm flattered Andrea. Simple and funny is sort of my strength. Deep and flowery, not so much. Glad you liked it, can't wait to read you animal nonsense poem. I have a feeling it is better than you let on. Also, from a few of your comments I am guessing you and I are in the same neck of the woods. Regards, Dean

About the last part of my Spain poem, yes, that was a heartbreaking day for me leaving Spain behind, and I am sad that I never found out what happened to eduardo.

After laughing at your ingenious write, and reading the comments, I've decided to give you and Tim kudos. You for the brilliant limerick, and Tim for the best dog gone comment I'll probably ever see.
