Ah,David..Stan should have called me! I have a name I made up as a stand up comedienne, and one for belly- dancing. In the performing arts, a name is a must! Don’t you think so? Anyway, your limerick was delightful! Pangie.

Good job of writing in this Limerick, David. A man just can't get a fair shake if no one plays his music. Have a great weekend! Bill

Stan wished to be held in esteem - That was his dream within a dream - When nobody played - The music he made - His tears were seen running downstream……. Belle

This is a cute little limerick. Yes, many composers have such elegant names.

Poor Stan, he tried his best but alas, his compositions remain unplayed. That's how I feel about my poetry sometimes. Have a great day,
