A [serious] limerick
Serious issues in limerick form
to this silly form don't well conform.
Though that being said,
perhaps it's all in my head,
my mindset informed by former norms?

Now…always! Never is too late.

That last line resonates so much it’s almost a blanket statement to describe a good majority of people. Clever write!
Thanks, D. ๐ I always aspire towards cleverness!

Nicely done! The poet’s best hope, perhaps is to push the boundaries of poetic form in an effort to describe life’s limitless possibilities.๐๐๐

My pleasure, David๐
There is such prominent assonance in this wonderful poem, sounds almost as a tongue twister!๐

You have turned the limerick on its head! If all limericks were like this perhaps I’d want to write them… Maybe that’s why I prefer the Spanish Quintain!
Yeah, limericks have quite the reputationโฃ๏ธ
I love it!
Thanks, Sam
