The common cold, influenza, swine flu--
She's got 'em all, so what does she do?
She wipes off her snot
On the gift that she bought
As she wraps it, then gives it to you.
I was surprised to recieve a package for me
That had been wrapped by the afore mentioned she.
But the stuff on the bows
Felt like it came from a nose
Thus spoiling all of my glee.
We're gonna need to have a limerick-off! No, I don't care that it isn't a word.
A limerick-off for some might inspire
And would require two writers to be on fire.
But I'm afraid I concede
To a prize I don't need
For it's C. Beth that we all admire.
Of limerick-offs you're not a fan?
We can do something else--yes, we can!
A book by us two--
Rhymes by me and by you--
It's our big, million-dollar plan!
A book by us two that reads strictly in rhyme?
I'd be willing to talk if you have the time.
But since our fans are but few
Is it worth to pursue?
When all we would make is a dime.
My fans are many--many, I say!
Surely you don't doubt it--nay, nay!
But despite my plans
My imaginary fans
Have imaginary money to pay....
This poetic battle has been hard fought
It's challenged my mind and a smile it's brought.
But all things must end
My dear rhyming friend
And to think this all started with snot.
Wow. I say you both win the limerick-off. That was truly a sight to behold. I'm just not sure if I'm amazed or terrified. :P
I think calling it a draw is a very good idea. Well-played, Mike. :)
Beth, that was fun. Let's do it again sometime.
No limerick here
But I wrapped this gift myself...
I need the box back.
