Caroline Sneedy, tall and reedy, always wore yellow and red and though not too smart, she had a big heart, (at least that’s what everyone said). One day in the city, particularly pretty, she met a strange man on the street, his name was Bill Klinker, and he was a stinker, (in attitude and in his feet!) Well soon they were talking, smiling and walking, like old friends from days gone by, and Caroline was captured, completely enraptured, by Bill who was sneaky and sly. Then he said Honey? You got any money? My wallet was stolen last night, and dear mama’s sick, I need it real quick (His smile was a dazzling white) Sweet Caroline Sneedy, though not very greedy was selfishly happy to please, in hopes that Bill Klinker, (the suave, hustling, stinker) would someday propose on his knees He promised to hurry and off did he scurry and when he returned they would wed, then life would be bliss for the naïve young miss, who looked lovely in yellow and red. But several weeks later, she searched for the traitor the shady fast-talking Bill Klinker, who'd fed her a tale as big as a whale, (and she’d swallowed it, hook line and sinker.) Caroline Sneedy, tall and reedy, always wore yellow and red, though she’d lost her kind heart, she sure did grow smart, (at least that’s what everyone said.)

Thanks all, this was fun to write! Don't know if it's a limmerick, but if felt kind of like one to me! Too long for a real limmerick, I suppose! |

Debbie~ This was delightfully done - and I'd venture to say it did have quite the touch of a limerick form to it. Very enjoyable. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
