There are times I feel smart as a whip,
Even savvy, and “with it,” and hip.
But for THAT I must score
A “Connections” game “four.”
Doing worse means I’m losing my grip.

Yet Another “Connections” Limerick
Monday, September 18th, 2023Connecting With “Connections.” (Limerick)
Wednesday, July 19th, 2023The New York Times has given me yet another addiction: Attempting to solve “Connections” every midnight:
I am hooked on a puzzling new game
Called Connections; the Times is to blame.
“Create four groups of four”
Is the goal. Simple chore?
No, I often flame out, to my shame.
My Quarter-Year Resolution (Limerick)
Friday, April 1st, 2022I am tired of meter and rhyming!
I have HAD it with assonant timing!
No more lim’ricks! I’m done!
My new way to have fun
Will be something outdoorsy — rock climbing.
My Latest Addiction (Limerick)
Tuesday, February 22nd, 2022Please help! I’m addicted to word games.

I also play cards,
But (like linguists and bards)
Prefer verbal brain-teasers — my nerd games.
Is Rhyming Addictive? (Limerick)
Friday, January 14th, 2022When I dream up a rhyme, I must grab it.
I will break up my sleep, just to nab it.
In the midst of a shower,
I’ll write “whiskey sour.” —
Can’t conquer this powerful habit.
