Gershon Wolf Poet Limerick

Maximum Damage

   
	         Cranked up the victrola to max damage
                  Put on a little Zeppelin, so savage
                     When the neighbors got mad 
                      I played Sir Galahad
                   Come play pickleball ~ first we’ll eat cabbage

David Crandall August 17, 2026 at 5:34 PM I like watching folks play bocce ball and pickleball here in the retirement community. We have a rule here, though - no eating cabbage first - lol. 😄 Gershon Wolf August 17, 2026 at 7:13 PM David! You dare to violate one of the sacred rules of pickleball -- i.e., eating cabbage first. I hereby banish you from the 21st century!! -- You lucky guy, you. ~ International Commissioner of Pickleball

Pascal Borg August 17, 2026 at 3:03 PM Funny, Gershon, I'm still waiting for Led Zeppelin to record on 78/79 rpm to play on my victrola. By 'funny' I mean your poem made me laugh. Great one, Gershon.
