what do you really think?

While some lines found here may offend
I think of you all as a friend
If it's too hard to take
These ideas for Pete's sake
Just call me a dork and hit send

Love your humor, Duke. If you don't write a lot more, I will need to go way back into your old limericks!

Thanks Andrea, we are trying to to laugh every so often. I actually enjoy writing these silly poems for some reason. I'll try to come up with more....but as you know it just gets triggered by something that happens. Just have to wait sometimes.

Thanks Christina. I see you have written limericks and many other poetic forms. Let me take a look. I am thinking there's not enough humor in life and also I have some heartburn with how easily offended people get. It's too much fun to give up a little satire here and there.

Remember when humour used to be humourous. They were the days.

Everyone is entitled to have their own opinions and beliefs and should never have to follow the crowd. If folks don't agree with you well tough, it's they who are the dorks. Tom

Thanks Tom. We will keep saying what we believe no matter what! This was just a reaction to the culture of being nice and politically correct. It's something our society is dealing with...shaming etc. I admire your work and sense of humor very much!!!
