Today\u2019s limerick and haiku theme is\u00a0warnings and\/or caution.\u00a0<\/em>First, my limerick:<\/p>\n

Please be careful when closing that door.
\nIf it hits you, you’re bound to be sore.
\nMy hand is still numb
\nFrom its catching my thumb,
\nAnd I’m thinking of suing this store.<\/p>\n

And now my warning-<\/em>related haiku:<\/p>\n

Storm clouds fill the sky
\nas walkers heed their warning
\nwhile birds cheer them on.<\/p>\n

Now, of course, it\u2019s your<\/strong> turn. Your assignment, should you choose to accept it, is to write a limerick or haiku (or both) about\u00a0warnings and\/or caution.<\/em> When you\u2019ve posted your verse, please return\u00a0here and add a direct link to your themed poetry, using Mr. Linky.\u00a0There\u2019s no rush, by the way, because you have a whole week to post it.<\/p>\n

(Note: My limerick was inspired in part by\u00a0Sunday Scribblings’ “sore” prompt<\/a> and Inspire Me Thursday’s “door” prompt.<\/a>)<\/p>\n
