Notes About The Poem
There are some scenes from the movie on YouTube..Just type in pictures from the movie "Something To Talk About"..I was thinking about this movie when I wrote the limerick ...Sara

Slick Limerick

.
There once was a poet named Sara
Who did Tommy a great favor
She cooked him some good lunch
He ate a great big bunch
Now food he no longer savors

In honor of Destroyer A Poet~

There once was a poet named Robert. Who fed all the world with just dirt. They ate all that they could. Some, much more than they should. That's why now, some of their guts hurt. Hi Sara, Congrats. You did such a nice job on yours, I was compelled to try my own. I hope you enjoy.

Yes Sara, feed a man you own him :) great poetry babe, I con my subconciousness into believing i have no hay fever and for the last 12 months i have no symptoms.... so my sub. believes me ...perhaps... Of course i sneeze with a cold sometimes, but its not hay fever, i insist:) feel good about my lie to the subconcious too!

haha, this is so funny.So you are saying what you cooked was NOT food, or that he ate so much of yours, that's why he is not savoring food any longer? How are you and your family doing lately,Sara? I hope your health isn't too bad? LUv, Andrea

What did you feed him my dear? I love limericks but am not good at them, perhaps I should give it a try. Best of luck in the contest.
