Jack Ellison Poet Limerick

Stayed Away From Gunfights

Harold the Coward was a famous cowboy in the old west
Stayed away from gunfights, with living he was obsessed
Enjoyed breathing air
Happy to be still there
Waking up every morning wearing his bulletproof vest

Carol Eastman September 24, 2015 at 9:41 AM Harold was really quite brilliant... He had been since he was an infant... Since at staying alive he was most proficient... He did indeed become a teacher of cooking full of fulfilliment... He has done his cooking shows in the millionth's... Jack Ellison September 24, 2015 at 2:51 PM Everybody has become a Limmerfanatic!
