(Grape, Elephant, Lunar)
There once was an elephant named Boomer.
It was early but he wanted to eat sooner.
Among other such junk
He sucked a grape up his trunk
Then he sneezed and the orb is now lunar.
What do you know, another elephant poem. There seems to be a pattern emerging here…
Great poem Neeks. I liked it 🙂
Thanks Scriptor, something about an elephant just brings out the silly in me, so a limerick it is!

As far as I can tell, you could just keep on writing about elephants forever, neeks. But I know the next time I see a post from you, it will be about a completely different, equally enchanting lead character.
Thank you Judith, your kind words are appreciated!

I think the grape landed on my windshield. I found you on Limebird, and you mentioned being near Valdosta… My wife, kids, and I are in Tallahassee… are you nearby? Just looking for fellow writers in the area.
I am, Ryan. I work in Valdosta. Small world isn’t it!
