Brevity, said the poet is the soul of wit So I decided to try my hand at it. “A short funny rhyme I'll post ”, I thought Clicking on the discussion tab of MyLot Alas ! I couldn’t write one , I ruefully admit.

I hate to tell you, but you did accomplish your feat. Maybe not in the way that you wanted or expected, but you did write a short one indeed. Good job with your limerick too. It's not exact, but durn close.

@responsiveme I generally don't worry about my syllabic count, as Janet could full well tell you. Most old time limericks were silly and some downright obscene, although we can't do much of that here. Except we can do silly, of course.
