Jan Allison Poet Limerick

Notes About The Poem

Super Sherlock

When Sherlock Holmes is solving a case
the villains footsteps he must retrace
He's such an excellent sleuth
and will uncover the truth
his detection skills truly are ace!

Paul Callus February 1, 2019 at 11:32 AM I've read a while ago that most writers were choosing Robin Hood; good to see you opting for Sherlock Holmes...and with very good results, too!

Carolyn Devonshire February 1, 2019 at 10:01 AM :) Enjoyed, Jan! I've always found Holmes interesting, but in the movie, it's Watson (Jude Law) who steals my heart.
