AWOL Angel
AWOL Angel (Limerick)
By Madeleine Begun Kane
I guess guardian angels are fine.
I don’t know, cuz I’ve never met mine.
If I have one, it’s hiding—
No guarding, no guiding.
What I’m missing, I can not divine.
(Written for the We Write Poems Guardian Angel prompt.)

Wonderful – like it very much. Great fun.
that was beautiful Mad.
My guardian too, has gone A.W.O.L.
He must have been an angel from Hell
There’s been no chiding
They too, are in hiding
And as for Divine intervention, I just can’t tell.
Madelaine, loved this limerick, like a petit fours of laughter.
“What I’m missing, I cannot divine.” GREAT double entrendre. Good work on this prompt, and thanks! Amy Barlow Liberatore
Oh this is so perfect Mad
I guess guardian angels are fine.
I’m not sure cuz they’re hard to define
I watch and I do wait
But I swear they are late
I may never know in my life time.
Thanks so much everyone. This was a strange topic for me, and I was thrilled when I thought of that last line. :)
That’s a witty write up. Neat :)
Good fun with the prompt, along with your usual portion of laughter. Thanks for this one,
Elizabeth
