Limerick Obsession

Saturday, February 28th, 2026

Penning lim’ricks each day’s an obsession.
If I don’t at least try, a depression
Will most probably hit.
So those rhymes must be writ
And have wit, unlike this, my confession.

Blizzard Blues (Limerick)

Monday, February 23rd, 2026

We’ve been hit by a blizzardy whack
And are buried in snow;
Twenty inches, and so
Can’t dodge shov’ling with “Oy vey, my back!”

Workplace Blues (Limerick)

Wednesday, February 18th, 2026

With the mountainous caseload they shirked.

My Unnoteworthy Skills (Limerick)

Sunday, February 15th, 2026

A wine tastes like leather…
But I DO know which wines get my votes.

Seemed so “odd,” no one dared ring his bell.
All his neighbors suspected
Shy Mel was “connected” …
And predicted he’d soon dwell in hell.
