A bootlicking fellow named Ross
Worked in footwear and fawned on his boss.
Many co-workers mocked him.
One gal even socked him.
He’s boss now … and she’s on the sauce.

The Bootlicker (Limerick)
Thursday, March 26th, 2026Happy Friday The 13th! (Limerick)
Friday, March 13th, 2026Though it’s Friday the 13th today,
Please don’t buy its “unlucky” cliché:
It’s an unfounded notion
That rates no devotion…
Oh My God! A black cat’s in my way!
Jury Duty? OY!
Thursday, March 5th, 2026A quatrain, for a change of pace:
A jury duty notice
has alas come in my mail.
I’m on call to serve next Monday, so…
I predict snow, sleet and hail.
Drumming Up Claims (Limerick)
Thursday, March 5th, 2026(Note: James is fictitious!)
An obnoxious old drummer named James
Enjoyed lawsuits & filing false claims.
He would wear people down,
Till he sued the wrong “clown.”
He’s been drummed out of town; life in flames.
Flowery Compliment? (Limerick)
Sunday, March 1st, 2026The old idiom “fresh as a daisy”
Always strikes me as odd, even crazy.
No one’s used it for me,
And I’m glad, cuz I’d see
Wilting plants, looking shriveled and lazy.
