Poetic Jargon

A one-legged lad from Maverick
Spent years rehearsing his rhetoric
This aesthetic athletic
Proved profoundly poetic
His lyrical soup wins plethoric

Hi Andrea thank you for the comment...may i explain my reasoning...athletic a play on the agility of an athlete, in this case the mental ability for rhetoric and plethoric as in a wealth of wins...both agreeably off to the side of the original meanings. I appreciate your comment...it was meant to be funny...maybe not so successfully. Cheers H

With this limerick, you pulled one hell of a trick. Looks like a prime pick. You wrote better than Keith and Mick. That's enough!
