Gargantuan winds drive me wild
And they make me feel weak and defiled.
Let them blow, if they must.
(Ebbing’s best! That’s my thrust.)
Signing off; Windy verse has me riled!

Monday, October 26th, 2026I’m Interviewed by Michael Croland of Dover Publications, on the Topic of Acrostic Limericks
Friday, April 21st, 2023I was honored to be interviewed by Michael Croland, of Dover Publications, on the topic of Acrostic Limericks. His piece includes eight of my acrostic limericks, in addition to my thoughts about the challenges of adding an acrostic element to a verse form that already has more than its share of rhyme and meter rules.
So, if you have any interest in acrostic limericks, or acrostic poetry in general, you should enjoy Croland’s article, “ACROSTIC LIMERICKS: A HYBRID OF TWO FORMS.”
NOTE: Croland’s most recent book, There Once Was a Limerick Anthology, was published by Dover Publications in August 2022, and his next book, Acrostic Poetry: The First-Ever Anthology, will be published by Dover in August 2023.
