There once was a woman named Pearl
Who loved her hair wavy with curls
But the minute she hit the steamy street,
Her hair fell flat like her feet
Then she pouted and cried like a girl!

/ September 30, 2011Thanks a lot, Izzy. Actually, I wasn’t too happy with line three–it kind of trips over itself a bit! Oh, well…
Will this be your first limerick then? It’s harder than it seems isn’t it. There’s a certain rhythm and rhyme to them–it’s quite an art to get them right.
Hugs,
Gayle xoxo

/ October 3, 2011Oh yes … it would have been my first. I am way too stuck to get it, perhaps, in the future. For now, I will enjoy the ones others write.
Good job ..

Hugs back to you from sunny Florida. Hey, we had our first little cool spell this weekend. Lows down into the low 60s–still in the mid 80s for the highs but the humidity is much lower. Now I know fall is out there somewhere and it’s not just a rumor! 😉
