Limerick 1

Tom Dylan

There once was a man from Eccles

made up of all glasses and freckles

he thought he would die

to give poetry a try

he just hopes nobody heckles.

    You never know, if you don't have a go, and if you get hecked, it just makes you stronger.
    But who would do that.

              I can see into the future, when the massive 647-page biography of ‘Tom * Dylan, Poet of Life’ is published, with those words as the epigraph.
              Neat limerick, Tom.

              • Tom Dylan

                Haha! Yes, mate, I love it. I can see that written in italics on the first page. 🙂

                Superb work. In all my years, I've never written a limerick. You have inspired me.

                • Tom Dylan

                  Thanks for that, mate. I'm always so inspired by your words, so for you to say so has made my day. 🙂 Cheers, Tom.
