The Engagement (Limerick)

Friday, April 25th, 2025

When my boyfriend proposed, mom was pleased:
“No returns, no exchanges,” she teased.
She was thrilled with our match,
For she thought him a catch…
And her “old maid” concerns were appeased.

Limerick Ditty

Thursday, April 10th, 2025

I’m attempting to write a short ditty
About something that’s dreadfully shitty.
But I’m getting the blues
From my options — can’t choose
The right shitstorm. (Things lately ain’t pretty!)

Clutter Conflict (Limerick)

Tuesday, April 8th, 2025

An old fellow who’d putter all day
Would refuse to throw refuse away.
When his wife tried to deal
With his clutter, he’d squeal
As he rescued his rubbish array.

An Arresting Lass (Limerick)

Monday, April 7th, 2025

As the cop brought her in, the young lass
Acknowledged she’d done something crass:
“In hindsight,” she said,
When her rights had been read,
“I shouldn’t have bared my cute ass.”

The Pissed-Off Boss (Limerick)

Sunday, April 6th, 2025

“You are constantly spouting some beef,”
Said his boss. “It’s non-stop. No relief!
Your complaints (mostly petty)
Don’t stick. They’re spaghetti.
Do your job and stop giving me grief!”

NOT A “Party Gal!” (Limerick)

Wednesday, April 2nd, 2025

For some inexplicable reason, tomorrow (April 3) is World Party Day.

Large festivities aren’t my scene.
I’m a hermit, at heart, and not keen
On behavior vivacious,
Flirtatious, or gracious.
Yes, NOT being seen has its sheen.
