Winter Wonderland Reception

A couple got married in the Winter Wonderland
For the reception they hired a mariachi band
They danced a Spanish jig,
Then left in a borrowed rig
Stiffing the poor caterer because the food was bland.

Fiction, Victor. Pure fiction. It was supposed to be funny, but then I realized it would not have been for the caterer!

Well, it certainly is a limerick form. I'd say, off-hand, they can be. TBT, I don't really know.

Hmmm...well, Jan, I'll be very happy to just be anywhere! (chuckling). You know, actually, I don't strive to be at the top of that list. Apparently, due to the fact that I respond to every comment, plus make comments, and try to keep up with Blogs, I guess I just find myself there. I'd be more than happy to relinquish the spot, but I'm not going to quit doing what I do because I enjoy the company here on Poetry Soup. I love my friends!
