Charles Messina Poet Limerick

Notes About The Poem

Example for my contest :)

Some People Without A Brain Do An Awful Lot Of Thinking

The Scarecrow, he was born without a brain 
And the Tinman got all rusted from the rain 
Because the Tinman had no heart 
And because the Scarecrow was smart 
Instead of walking to Oz, he'd taken a train

Michelle Smith November 27, 2024 at 12:21 PM The Tinman found something to read/ then the Scarecrow followed his lead/ on the way, they grew/ what they felt and knew/ now for the Wizard -- there's no need!
