They told me \"no longer go out\"
for exercise just jump and shout
but theres something quite fishy
about flailing limbs swishy
i\'m afraid ive become an old trout
so at last we\'ve got it for real
that much promised brexit good deal
we put an end to the babble
we conquered the rabble
with stiff upper lip sex appeal
you think lockdown cushy?
well my hairs got quite bushy
the missus complains
and plays video games
while i playfully stroke the pussy
As i\'ve said before, I just can\'t help joining in when i see a good limerick. Yours are super today.
Soddit i will post these today as my muse is on holiday at the moment..... thanks for the inspiration.

\'hot\' radishes, might be the oddest thing I have heard recently, though I doubt the kinda \'pickling\' found \'down the drain\' is necessarily all that healthy either... lol
as for \'sore bum cheeks\', I window-peep all that concrete greenery my beloved city has to offer,
and through all the stilled quietude of absent industry - I glimpse, I can\'t help but think: what a nice break for dear old mother nature 2020 has been...
nice write Michael,

TWO SHORTIES
L. B. Mek said:
a wonderful gem you\'ve shared dear friend, the artwork would have been enough for me to favourite, with those juxtaposed set of \'peak\'s\',
one pair at that low colourless tide - by the edge on the \'left\' of life...
and the other off-kilter \'couple\' towering high on the right - coloured in-full and imposing,
as if saying: at all times, we are one - we wait it out, intrusting in that level foundation we built our life\'s musical of love upon...
hope that brave certain \'someone\' in your life gleans all the meaning you\'ve imbued into your wonderful dedication Michael,
a great write as well!
(though I may be interpreting your meaning in my own self-centred way, to find I\'m grasping at straws you never planted, if so: forgive my overzealous nature my friend)

TWO SHORTIES
Robert Southwick Richmond said:
The swan of legend, of course, sings once before she dies. Back in the days when I was trying to learn to sing madrigals, of course I sang \"The Silver Swan\" (Orlando Gibbons, 1610):
The silver Swan, who, living, had no Note,
When Death approached, unlocked her silent throat,
Leaning her breast upon the reedy shore,
Thus sang her first and last, and sang no more:
“Farewell, all joys! O Death, come close mine eyes!
More Geese than Swans now live, more Fools than Wise.”
A friend of mine had a professor in college who was an inadvertent master of malaprop and mixed metaphor. On the last day of class he announced \"I\'ll do my swan dance today.\"
Love your graphic (I just stole it). When I saw your previous one, I thought \"Is that Joan Miró or Paul Klee\"?

I have a blackbird who comes to me in milder evenings to sing. His music is the root of all the music i hear elsewhere. Music is emotion brought into the audible sphere and that birds song brings all sorts of emotion to mind.
The blackbirds song is my tap on the reality of how i personally relate to the natural world around us.

You\'re unusual on MyPoeticLife in that you write metrical verse. Iambic tetrameter couplets are something I\'m very interested in - see my Christmas Fete poem posted on Christmas Day.

I tried my hand at writing slush
gave it up, knocked down by a bus.
wrote a sonnet on the canal top ice
but the ice was thin, i paid the price
so i turned at last to compose in fog
stupidly i wandered into a bog
so still i try, here at my pooter
dumbstuck as usual, in a stupor
