Happy Limerick Day (and Edward Lear’s Birthday) (May 12)

My lim’rick obsession’s severe;
I write rhymes night and day ev’ry year.
My addiction is brutal.
Resistance is futile…
And I warrant the fault lies with Lear.

Happy birthday, Edward Lear, and Happy Limerick Day!

    Bravo!

    Your verses go round in my head
    And at night they stay with me in bed
    Mindfulness rather failed
    To grant peace unassailed
    So I just thought I’d post this instead. ;O)
