Misnomer

RESTROOM, is a misnomer at best. To me that's a fact, I attest! Though my visits are brief, I've gotten lots of relief, but never once, have I got any rest! Suggestion: Call them Relief Rooms!

Outrageously funny, Ralph! Some men go into the bathrooms with newspapers and do seem to "rest" there for hours. For me, it's a place for relief. What a great limerick -- you sure know how to write 'em. Love, Carolyn

If you could only italicize the work restroom for effect....This is a great title for your work. The shape of your poem is also quite familiar...who woulda tho't? Nice! Happy Spring! Glad I am the first to read this clever misnomer. Gwendolen
