As the might-have-beens get smaller
And the what-the-hecks get taller
Life gets sweeter.
What a beater,
Death looms, but ya wanna stall'er

K-iss the night goodbye,
A-s you rise from slumber;
R-ight away leave the dark,
E-ither now or
N-ever.
M-istakes, errors and sins
A-re causing a nightmare;
I-mprove the way you walk,
N-ew life is worthwhile
E-ver.
S-ay goodbye to the night,
A-s you say hello to the dawn;
N-ovember seventeenth morn
C-hecks if the dusk is gone.
H-ave a beautiful day,
E-agerly gaze at the blue sky;
Z-ealously welcome the sun, kiss the night goodbye.

"A Thing Called Love"
by: Eric L. Boddie
You only Live once, so have no regrets
So, at some point, go and have you some sex
And if you do it right, Love is what comes next
But please understand that relationships can get complex
For it only takes an instance to become one's ex
But once you truly learn that Love respects
All of the passion that the frame reflects
You will lose all ability to show neglects
Because that is truly what any heart expects
And the mating of a Soul always corrects
Every single thing that hate infects
Establishing compassion to all deserving suspects
Who won't give in to all of those "what the hecks"
Because once Love injects
Life sees great effects
Where only negativity is all it rejects

I never quite knew
what it meant.
And, if explained,
I never understood.
Shoot! I've never even LIKED the game!
And, I never thought that I would.
But,
The fear... The pride...
The gleam, in my eye...
The joy in my heart...
could only mean one thing.
I'm a football mom...?
YEAH!, A FOOTBALL MOM!
I love you, sweetie.
Now honey, you get out there,
AND, HIT SOMEBODY!!
OH! Did I just say that?
Where did that BASS come from?
Now, you be careful,
when you HIT SOMEBODYYYY!!!
OH MY! Well, anywho...
I've got my blanket, rain gear,
and my thermos (minus the toddy),
so, I'll still be nice and toasty,
when you HIT SOMEBODYYY!!!
I may not care for the game,
but I love the kid, who plays it.
Proud football mom, am I,
and my heart is just ablaze with it.
This feeling right here, is the BOMB!
So, whether home or away,
I'm in that thang!
Hecks YEAH!!!!
I'm a football mom!

Sillybillables
sillybillables stuff up my attempt at limericks,
stilted seems the day,
guess im not meant for 'what the hecks,'
shut up johnson n go away:) (yes Russell)
it would be more fun without a counting one,
to knock out a jolly limerick,
the flow n go would also come,
who needs the syllables in it???
So you have your limerick flowing nice,
But the syllables dinna click,
You scratched yer head more than once or twice,
till with up it you’ve been sick….orright.
Can we have a Limerick comp. without sillybillables a stifling creativity?
