John Read Poet Limerick

Mr Trump

Election candidate Donald Trump 
Was giving certain people the hump 
They made it quite clear 
When shot in the ear 
To go take a running jump.

But his rival sleepy Joe 
Was taking things far too slow 
With his mind on the blink 
He just couldn't think 
It was time to pack up and go.

Now Donald feels he's home and dry 
As he bids sleepy Joe goodbye 
But waiting in the wings 
Are far stranger things 
For Kamala is ready to fly.

John Read August 31, 2024 at 5:06 AM Those were the days sister Beryl. I still have Magicmans email address, he pictured my poem Stoic on FFP just a week ago. Beryl Edmonds August 31, 2024 at 7:03 AM Will take a peek.

Beryl Edmonds August 30, 2024 at 10:20 AM Was it a put up job, or was it not - When in the ear Donald got himself shot - Looking for glory - The same old story - Truly it was an ear bashing he got…. Sis Beryl Beryl Edmonds August 30, 2024 at 11:45 AM No it is not better than yours brother John, and I see you’ve added extra lims, you inspired me to write limericks after all, when I joined in with you and magicman, a long time ago… Sis Beryl John Read August 30, 2024 at 11:23 AM Sister Beryl your reply is better than my limerick. Lol
