Jan Allison Poet Limerick

Notes About The Poem

Shot Date

Cara’s on the pull with her mate
And hoping to land a hot date
She spies a fit guy
Who gives her the eye
What happened next made her irate.

His work tag reveals his name’s Jim
She flutters her lashes at him
He says’ move over pet
Canney see TV set’
Her chance of romance sure was grim

Inspired by a true story from a sweet friend,

Jennifer Proxenos February 19, 2022 at 9:47 AM Hi Jan, It is strange how life experiences and sayings and jokes heard can trigger off the idea for a poem. I love this one Jan, and see this one was inspired by such. hope you are keeping well, Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Andrea Dietrich February 13, 2022 at 6:41 PM Hi, Jan, sorry I have been too busy lately to see your work. I was so surprised that one of the funny limericks in my contest did not belong to you. Sure hope you are ok. I was really thinking one of those limericks belonged to you!!

Mike Gentile February 12, 2022 at 11:01 AM I've seen that happen Jan, Good one!! xxoo

Connie Marcum Wong February 12, 2022 at 12:06 AM How insulting! I had to laugh though, because some men are really into sports. I am very lucky my husband wasn’t. He would watch the Super Bowl. A great Limerick. Blessings xxoo

Eve Roper February 9, 2022 at 10:45 PM way to go to lose it to a ball game... men for you..

Lisa Ricci February 9, 2022 at 5:53 AM Hello Jan - What can be said for this is everything. What a red flag and looser. Beware... Always are your limericks humorous and light to bring a smile and chuckle. May this day find you well. Blessings always.

Rico Leffanta February 8, 2022 at 10:25 AM Best to recognise a couch potato at the beginning rather than the end! Enjoyed!

Anselmo Boles February 7, 2022 at 7:21 PM Well, I guess he didn't take the bait, couldn't read the sign---this guy's a big loser! "Canney see the tv." Really? Very funny!!..ab

Harry Horsman February 7, 2022 at 7:02 PM Your limericks are a joy, Jan, and yes real life provide the best situations. Be Safe. Harry

L Milton Hankins February 7, 2022 at 12:48 PM Hmmm...maybe she should take up football, the NFL! He's hardly worth the effort, if you ask me.

Michelle Faulkner February 7, 2022 at 12:40 PM Guess he was more interested in the TV than in her! Sorry that happened to your friend~
