Beryl Edmonds Poet Limerick

Notes About The Poem

Silly Me

Silly Me
I went out when I shouldn't have, silly me
Slid on the ice, though not too daintily 
Did the splits in my glide
In that I took great pride
But had no pride in thighs hugging a tree.

Victor Buhagiar December 29, 2020 at 11:15 PM I only fell once on ice in London. Had to go back and change as the ice was wet. No ice in Malta, only cold wind. ~~ Beryl Edmonds December 30, 2020 at 3:28 AM Thank you Victor, I fell once in Birmingham, a long time ago, slid and fell flat out on my back, lucky for me a neighbour came to the rescue. Malta, what a nice place to be in. ~~ Belle
