My Funny Valentine

There once was a woman divine,
Who parked every car but in line.
She said, “Straight is a myth,”
With a confident sniff—
Yet somehow she still parked her heart next to mine.

Hey, this one was not in my contest and it says free verse instead of limerick. If you had shortened the last line and entered it as a limerick, you'd have won a contest. Great humor.

The last line is the beauty of the small poem. Well done dear friend.
