Telephone Answer Machine Limerick.

Goldfinch60



We are not here to answer this call,

So just to please us, one and all,

If after the tone,

Leave a message to phone,

So we can call back and not bawl.

    Good write Gold.

    There is something about limericks that has always caught my attention and kept it. Maybe the humor, the silliness, the meter I don't know but I do like them. A good one Gold

    • Goldfinch60

      Yes there certainly is something about limericks soren, thank you for your comment.

          Depends on the message
          If trouble it presage
          I won't be calling back at all.

            An excellent voicemail message and limerick, Andy. Must use it on the mobile some time, if permitted 🙏🕊️
