Caren Krutsinger Poet Limerick

Rumpelstiltskin Thought He Would Get Baby

Rumpelstiltskin's temper pronounced.
So many hard feelings he flounced.
Suspected maybe
He would get baby
Spun gold for no reason. Was trounced.

Eve Roper February 2, 2019 at 7:23 PM Perfect Limerick, Caren, I enjoyed reading. Congratulations on your win..Hugs Eve ~`* Caren Krutsinger February 2, 2019 at 10:26 PM Thank you Eve. I had a lot of fun with her for sure.

Charles Messina February 2, 2019 at 6:19 AM Excellent limerick Caren. Loved it. Congratulations on your win. :) Caren Krutsinger February 2, 2019 at 6:39 AM Thank you Charles. I had to look up the word trounce to make sure I was right. Some words I do not use very often.

Andrea Dietrich February 1, 2019 at 6:41 PM love how you did yours, Caren. Congrats for your win. Still have not even seen my contest entries because it's taking me all week to just catch up here on comments. OH MY Caren Krutsinger February 1, 2019 at 8:35 PM Andrea, I get it. People can wait. We are poets. We can write while we wait.

Jan Allison February 1, 2019 at 2:39 PM Great rhyming Caren, many congrats on your win:-) hugs Jan xx Caren Krutsinger February 1, 2019 at 8:35 PM Thank you Jan. I liked this one but had no idea if it would place as I saw so many great entries!

Alexis Y. February 1, 2019 at 2:35 PM Hi Caren, I'm so happy you made the winners list! Congratulations on your fine :-) Alexis Caren Krutsinger February 1, 2019 at 8:36 PM Thank you Alexis. I have a new strategy. I never look at the winners any more. Other people always tell me if I get something, and I do not have to feel badly when I do not which is about 50 percent of the time.

Mahtab Bangalee January 28, 2019 at 9:56 PM its interesting Caren Krutsinger January 28, 2019 at 10:59 PM And I am wondering - does this mean you know the story?

Michelle Faulkner January 28, 2019 at 1:13 PM Darn, I was going to do Rumpelstiltskin but you beat me to it (and so creatively, too!) Will surely be on the winner's list! Caren Krutsinger January 28, 2019 at 2:47 PM Thanks Michelle. I really have always loved this story, so I had to do it. I am sure you could still use Rumpelstiltskin and come up with something amazing.

Martin Brown January 28, 2019 at 5:27 AM Rumpelstiltskin made history by having a baby or wanting one. Very witty and I like the words Pronounced, flounced and trounced. They are hard words to rhyme with but you have managed it well. Caren Krutsinger January 28, 2019 at 7:34 AM Thank you my friend. Trounced was a stretch; I looked up the meaning to make sure I was accurate.

Swetha Vangaveti January 28, 2019 at 2:51 AM I love the titles you give to your poems Caren and of course no doubt your poems too :) Caren Krutsinger January 28, 2019 at 4:23 AM Thank you Swetha. You are always saying the right lovely thing.

Alexis Y. January 27, 2019 at 8:25 PM Lol! Caren, This is a limerick through and through! You captured the whole story in this fairy tale limerick! I wish you the best of luck in the contest:-) Alexis Caren Krutsinger January 27, 2019 at 9:56 PM Thank you Alexis. I appreciate your stop by.
