I saw that it was a sixteen line contest and made a mistake I was wrong and each verse was a true limerick form. I apologise for my mistake hugs Shadow

Sorry to disagree Shadow, it is truly a Limerick trio to me, can you explain why you thought otherwise… Beryl

The man who flirted and rallied around with other ladies needed such a treatment. Your limerick has made me smile. Very hilarious dear Beryl.

Losers need to be put in their place, preferably in outer space. Pleased this gave you a smile dear Valsa. Thank you, Beryl

What a loser with a pretty date like you he messes around, so happy you got rid of him and found someone else. The first one sounded like real sleeze bag. Hugs and blessings dear friend Jennifer. .

If he had have been mine I’d have ditched him just as Daisy ditched her swine. Thank you dear friend Jennifer, blessings and hugs sent back… Beryl

I absolutely love the way this is written dear beryl, the best revenge and weapon for those jealous is kindness and success. I love the opening especially and also how youv written “ So she danced, for her man was a loser Should have left the alien much sooner “ made me smile! Yes better late than never! Love the alliterations too, seamless. Pleasure reading your work dear beryl. Sending you light

I am yet to pick a dance yet, but as always you write to the theme so well.. Jealousy is something everyone endures at some point in their lives... some are just a lot worse than others..

Thank you Solent One, just wrote this quote - “When one buries jealousy deep down in the ground, instantly lighthearted happiness is found.” ~ Beryl
