What Is Going On?

The haystack yields more than just giggles
It shakes first then wobbles and wiggles
A month has now gone by
Can someone tell me why
She now craves ice cream with dill pickles

The wiggles in the haystack will end up producing a little wiggler in nine months. Cute limerick, Charles. Good luck in the contest.

Smile, Charles, I think you already know why she's craving the icream and pickles. Great limerick! Best wishes in the ccontest. As for your comment, there are many poems with "forced" rhyme. But there are also many poems that I simply don't understand. I'd leave a comment on any poem I understand, but I can't leave one when I have no clue what the author is trying to say. The intent of your poetry is always clear. Thank goodness! Love, Carolyn
