Line Gauthier Poet Limerick

Pepper Happy

There once was a man named Little John
Who should have signed up for al-anon
Renowned fun merrymaker
Liked to hog the pepper shaker
Mean when black powder was gone

Paul Callus November 20, 2018 at 3:21 PM An enjoyable Limerick, Line. I don't know why, but I keep getting this image of Rumpelstiltskin in mind! Regards // paul Line Gauthier November 20, 2018 at 5:07 PM Thanks for your most appreciated visit and comment. It is very funny how short poems invite the reader to conjure up vivid images sometimes more so than lengthier poems.

Andrea Dietrich November 20, 2018 at 12:26 PM a great way to take the theme. AS of yet, i remain clueless on this one! Line Gauthier November 20, 2018 at 2:14 PM Joke is on us, Andrea. Don't go through any trouble... The contest was abruptly closed.
