If medicine gives us a tail, The proper should not let it flail. It should be coiled tight, Though tea-holding's right, Or holding the rudder to sail.

Hi Mr. Jerrold, Limerick I knew it's a 5 lines poetry however I don't follow the other definition. I've been into spreading the word of Eternal God. I invite u to visit my poetry hp and read from Eternal and work ur way up to its recent. I forgot how to write personal poetry and just going back to it. Thanks in advance ~Jac
