Young Reginald had a large nose
On which birds of all types would repose.
This at first he enjoyed
but he soon got annoyed
when they crapped down the front of his clothes.

That's always going to be a problem, Michael.
Bat's are an even bigger problem - especially the guano on the top lip.
My first smile of the day, thank you Michael.
A smile a day keeps the birds away.
Oh lol. Nose as big as a bird's perch!
Quite useful but you do need a large hanky.
There was a young Girl from Divizes
Whose EARS* they were different sizes
One was so small ~ it was no use at all
But the other ~ it won several prizes
*Could be FEET ~ ETC ETC !
Thanks MIKE for another limmy and another

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Well done, Micheal! It's a pleasure to run across well written humor in our usually heavy offerings.
Ah thank you Louis - I do write quite a bit of heavy stuff but often get more fun out of writing a bit of nonsense and the limerick is an ideal platform. When it comes to serious work I do wish more poets could write about subject matter other than their own direct personal experiences - to do so is the mark of a good poet. Sorry - I could go on and on - thanks again for your kind comment.
I totally agree, Michael. The younger poets, it seems, haven't had enough life experience to draw from in their poetry, outside of what they are feeling now. Would you agree?
Absolutely but that is not to say they don't have the potential talent and ability to extend their repertoire with a bit more of life's experience - just gets a tad sameish (just invented that word and off to get it copyrighted) and, dare I say, boring after a while. I don't look at everything that's published here but of those I do look at I usually sum them up in the first few lines and often get no further - I probably miss out on some good stuff as a result but heigh ho!
I've just looked at your work and there's certainly nothing sameish about it - in fact its pretty darn good and inspiring - will look out for your future postings.
You humble me. I, likewise, will follow yours, my friend.
Haha.
