Notes About The Poem

Brown's Descent, or the Willy-Nilly Slide by Robert Frost - Poems | poets.orgImage result for pictures of a man sliding down a hill holding a lanternThis is based totally on the poem above. I did not fall on the ice or snow for we have not had any and if we did my children would not let me go outside. LOL

Please look up the poem by Robert Frost if you can using the link above. 

Willy-Nilly Slide

I like Brown did a Willy-Nilly Slide As I went out to feed the cat fish fried A dish so unusual On a frozen day jewel Right leg went left and left right, I did glide

Eve, I think you can write one that is not really humorous but according to the form's description it is better to have some humor. Thanks for stopping by. Sara

Sara if you can do the splits in a glide, then you should be beaming with pride... A brilliant, humorous Limerick.~ Belle

Belle, I agree that would have been something to see. I would not want it to happen to me or anyone else. Thanks for stopping by. Sara..There is just something funny about seeing a person slipping and falling like that..LOL
