Of a poet named James I know little, Except that he's clever with rhyme He deliberately misses How the end lines should sound - At least all his rhythm's spot on.
I love this anti-limerick limerick. My Dad and I used to make up these unrhymed limericks, usually very rude! Yours was polite, the picture was gorgeous. I'd advise keeping away from hornets: I cycled into one once and my eyes swelled up until I couldn't see.

Very funny and clever. Enjoyed it, though the yellow jackets are buzzing here and I'm not fond of wasp stings!
ReplyDeleteouch, like this.
ReplyDeleteBlood brilliant James! (I can't stop giggling!)

I'd say you've really got the humor down, even if you are poking' fun at the rhyme and the format!!

ReplyDeleteYou rebel you... love it!
ReplyDeleteThe was a man who lived in Britain
ReplyDeleteWhose words of rhyme sounded of not
He played with a wasp
Who wasn’t a hornet
Leaving us stung in his hive of wit
Ha, I guess you showed us there's more than one way to spin a limerick.
ReplyDeleteLove the different drumbeat it this.
Nice limerick James- daring to play with the form- you rascal! Urrrr hate hornets.
