She Sang Her Heart Out

She sang and she sang till blue in the face
         It didn’t look bad with her dress of white lace
She sang her little heart out
        Her body they did cart out
They searched for her heart, there was nary a trace

Thanks Sara, when I wrote this, I was feeling funny and that this is such a funny expression, what if it was literal! I never thought anyone would think it was sad! That's what's great about writing, interpretation is entirely individual!

A creative/fun yet sad Limerick write. Maybe we should sing a little less. I wish you would write more. Today be blessed as you write away.................

Sad but clever my friend. She sang her heart out, she died for the love of singing and yet when they searched for for heart there was nothing there, she actually sang it out, out and away - WOW intense imagination Mike, really enjoyed, very well penned. Thank you for your welcome visits and awesome comments, hugs and blessings, Jennifer

She sang and got carried away. I can relate to that! Blue goes great with white lace, by the way. ;)

Wow, I never thought of something like that. You know, we have so many "saying," that we dare not analyze. I like this one, Mike. Very thought-provoking.

Well, if that's not the epitome of sadness, nothing is. What prompted such a maudlin write, Mike?
