Ah but definitely beyond limerick Michael; increased complexity in tune with the visuals above.
I hope to see this continue, free of competitive rhymes (not you, dusk) well into the future.......

just crazy, to introduce war
to a world still reeling from COVID..
an apt use of reverse psychology
in poetic form, to showcase
your exasperation
at this befuddling and shameful episode
in humanity\'s history..
humour needs to prick
if it\'s to encourage the healing of our overwhelmed
sensitivity\'s, I think
(as long as it\'s in good taste)..
thanks Michael, a read that adds a realistic
balanced and relatable perspective
to this challenging times..
(btw
on another note, in USA
as a way to get money, right
to the hands of the Ukraine people
and not some, charity scam
people began booking, Airbnb
rooms and requesting
no refunds, for cancellations
or unavailable status of rooms
so the owners got the money direct..
I thought this was so inventive
and reassured my dwindling hopes
that goodness, may someday
prevail)

a missile, a bomb or a murderous shooting
which poisonous death awaits mr putin
how many more times
shall we witness war crimes
before the day someone executes him

I\'ve just written one about Kiev which on reflection could sound quite disrespectful given the tragic circumstances so I\'ve posted this instead. Still hesitant about posting it as I don\'t want to cause hurt even though there is still room for humour in the darkest hours.

Wot, Michael – no limerick double ‘0’, with prefix one?
Surely it would be good to round it out and do the ton?
‘Apologies for previous conflagration -
I will endeavour to avoid future mention:
But this takes restraint, and that’s not easy when all is done.

So multi disciplined, Michael: L’s one and three – Relationship[ councellor extraordinaire: L2 – incontinence advisor.
Cross discipline, I know, but one has to diversify in these uncertain times.
Your artworks …complexity rulez. Great.

The passion he felt in his heart
one could see well expressed in his art
his pictures were abstract
like his cow in a cat-flap
and his opticians rorschach eye-chat
his spectacles you could say were bizarre
above both his ears were crowbars
on the bridge of his nose
was a rat decomposed
his lenses - a pair of jamjars
in the finest artistic tradition
came the day of his first exhibition
where a social cross section
approved his collection
he wished now he\'d charged them admission

lol
the awkward depth meaning hidden in these words
has a prerequisite of aged life experience, I think..
or maybe that\'s just me
(I\'m still chuckling btw)
thanks Michael

He wished upon a wishbone
wanting not to be alone
his wish came true
he\'s got a silly moo
and all she does is moan
he wished he\'d wished upon that star
cos he\'d rather he\'d wished for a red sports car
it could come true
either red or blue
to rush his wife to the abbotoir
