A man did his best to disguise
His retinal issues with lies.
When at last he sought ocular
Aid, he was jocular:
“Doc, you’re a sight for sore eyes!”

Retaining Your Sense Of Humor (Limerick)
Wednesday, March 23rd, 2022Idiomatic Idiocy? (Limerick)
Thursday, September 23rd, 2021It’s not bad enough that I’m addicted to writing limericks. Now I’m also hooked on reading/playing with idiom lists:
“I suspect that our firm has a spy,
Cuz a journo just called to ask why
We give patients the squeeze
With our vision-wear fees.
Now our practice will get a black eye.”
Limerick Ode To Eyeglasses
Tuesday, August 13th, 2019I was reading some mind-numbing prose,
Which apparently caused me to doze.
I’ve awakened — can’t see!
Did my eyeglasses flee,
Somehow slipping from nose-tip to toes?
Happy Eyeglasses Day! (August 13)
Minding Eyes And Ears (Limerick)
Wednesday, July 10th, 2019Thanks to Dictionary.com for inspiring this “eye-minded” limerick:
My husband Mark tends to be eye-minded.
As for me, I’m more aural and rhyme-minded.
While Mark will observe
Most sightings with verve,
I don’t, unless helpfully “high”-minded.
