An Absurd Limerick

Monday, November 20th, 2023

It’s “Absurdity” Day. How absurd
To describe just one day with that word.
For you’ll have to admit
That “absurd’s” a fine fit
For most days … or at least a good third.

(Absurdity Day is celebrated on November 20 each year.)

“Absurdity Day” Seems Absurd (Limerick)

Sunday, November 20th, 2022

Today’s “National Absurdity Day,” though I can’t imagine why.

To “Absurdity Day,” I say NAY!
Cuz the NON-absurd’s faded away.
The inane seems to reign,
And the world’s gone insane.
“Use Your Brain,” though, deserves its own day!

In honor of “Absurdity Day” and “Air Your Dirty Laundry Day,” here’s a pair of haiku:

“Absurdity Day”
How is this day different
from all other days?

*****

I don’t celebrate
“Air Your Dirty Laundry Day”
Because it’s a wash.

Happy National Absurdity Day! (November 20)

Limerick Ode To National Absurdity Day
By Madeleine Begun Kane

Today you can get a free pass
To be zany — do things that lack class:
It’s Absurdity Day,
So go your own way—
Skip backwards, dance nude, kiss a bass.
