Elysian Limerick
By Madeleine Begun Kane
With a life that’s elysian I’d miss
Mock’ry grist — things amiss – that’s not bliss!
I’d have nothing to say;
I can’t write ev’ry day
Without stuff that deserves a good diss.
(Inspired by the Twitter #WordStew prompt: ELYSIAN.)

There’s wit that is lambent.
There’s humor that’s bent.
I’m feeling quite sheepish;
Had to search what “lambent” meant.
