Sorry for the delay (one wrist is broken and I’m having a bad carpal tunnel attack in the other). Today\u2019s limerick, haiku, and senryu theme is\u00a0food and drink.\u00a0<\/em>First, my limerick:<\/p>\n

There once was a fellow named Dwight
\nWho fought over gin bills each night.
\nHe was covered with scars
\nFrom his battles in bars.
\nHis lesson? Don’t fight while you’re tight.<\/p>\n

And now my haiku (senryu):<\/p>\n

\nFrench champagne with peach ice cream,
\nWater with asp’rin.<\/p>\n

Now, of course, it\u2019s your<\/strong> turn. Your assignment, should you choose to accept it, is to write some verse about\u00a0food\u00a0and drink.<\/em> When you\u2019ve posted your poem(s), 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\u00a0ten days to post it.<\/p>\n
