LIMERICK 41

Michael Edwards

 

 

A very odd man from Koblenz

who followed the latest trends

wore specs framed in red

on the top of his head

so he wouldn’t wear out the lens.

    I could never wear my specs on top of my head - I would always be looking for them!

    • Michael Edwards

      Nor can I - I need them all the time and its ever been thus.

      Ahh makes sense M. lol. Some wear them on the end of their nose, to look distinguished or 'classical'.

      • Michael Edwards

        I feel sorry for those with eyes in the back of their head - no nose to support them !

        There was a Young Girl from Hawaii
        Who was extrovert
        And far from SHYII
        With a smile kool & pert
        She pulled up her grass skirt
        And showed me her HUMGAGAWAII

        Thanks MIKE for another
        Enigmatic Limerick 40+ !
        Yours BRIAN

        Thanks for another great Rural WC !

        • Michael Edwards

          Wonder if Fred knew her - love the limerick Brian

          • BRIAN & ANGELA

            Very clever limerick. I'm blind as a bat, so it's either contacts or wearing glasses---the right way, lol! Also, a beautiful painting to accompany your limerick!

            • Michael Edwards

              Thanks Christina - there's only way to wear them - properly or not at all. I am not ashamed to wear them and can't be doing with contacts so I wear them with pride.

              Never knew that is why people do that. Makes perfect sense!
              Cute limerick, Michael.

              • Michael Edwards

                Yup - and when they take them off they wear a cap back to front cos the don't know if they're coming or going.
