Kim Rodrigues Poet Limerick

Summer Laziness

In Florida donuts all ‘round —
the whirlpool of kids as “bigs” frowned.
         The force of the push
         did wimple their tush
and throw them all off and they drowned.

Aditi Mishra June 22, 2020 at 1:13 AM I know that situation when kids just plunge themselves on anything. Though I feel like eating donuts now. Congratulations on your win for this amusing limerick. Blessings and love Kim :) Kim Rodrigues June 22, 2020 at 5:06 AM LOL, Aditi! That visual of donuts we can’t get past especially sprinkled with confetti colors :)

Michelle Faulkner June 10, 2020 at 11:06 PM now 'wimple their tush' will be stuck in my head - not such a bad thing, though! Kim Rodrigues June 11, 2020 at 5:00 AM LOL...we have words come to mind. This like a nursery rhyme...like ring around the rosies, likewise dark in the end (of history that is)
