A poet’s limerick
Sit down on your fat ass and write a poem in jammies rumpled with beard graying uncombed you're all alone at home no calls on your phone - write now before thoughts nimble have flown

That same voice tells us to get out of our rumpled jammies at noon. ๐
Funny one!

You grabbed these fleeting thoughts for sure David…a fun image and you made a limerick!! Very pandemic-days in feeling:)
Thanks, Karima ๐
My brain has fleeting thoughts that often refuse to stay put long enough to reach the written stage. Limericks are very difficult to me. Your gift of writing so many types of poetry is wonderful.
Fleeting thoughts are practically my whole life, Lauren ๐
Thank you for the very kind compliment!
Yours,
David
This is awesome!
Thanks so much, Carla – I really appreciate your kindness.

Limericks are difficult for me so I enjoyed yours! Inspiration always hits me when I have no pen at hand… so must recite lines in my head until I can put them down.
Really, Muri? That’s so interesting to me – I find limericks to be among the easiest to write! Once, I an idea came to me just as I was putting my daughter to bed, and I forced myself to repeat it over and over again in my mind, just in case I fell asleep and wouldn’t get to it in the morning!

Nice one, hurry up before the flame goes down. Hahaha. I wonder, how many wonderful creations has gone on the air.
Too many!
Thanks, Krishna โค
Sincerely,
David
Most welcome.
Ah yes, too often the nimble thoughts have flown off before I’ve had a chance to write them down. Thankfully, having a cell phone helps, to type those thoughts in the Notes app — but sometimes I’m too dense to think of doing that ๐
I just try to stay within 20 feet of my computer at all times ๐คช
heheh.
Thanks, Dave!
Yours,
David
Dave the same here. I also have trouble transferring the thoughts into words, perhaps I could dictate to my computer.
No time like the present!
๐Indeed๐
I truly like this.
Awww, thanks, Stephen ๐
Much appreciated!
Yours,
David
They weren’t nimble enough
