How long has it been since you wrote a limerick?

There once was a blogger who thought...
"I wonder how many comments I'll get?"
If I write a poor limerick,
And post without thinking quick,
Just how many people'll think I'm nuts!
Yes, I know it's not perfect limerick form- but it's been years since I've written one- and that just came from nowhere! So, if you have a witty reply- you know the drill...leave me a comment. And I just might pick one of you and mail you a handmade, "Thanks for reading Nitty.Gritty. card". Now I know the comments are gonna fly in! Have a nice Saturday night!

This will be funny to see,
How many people will do this for free.
Just to possibly get,
A handmade card, better yet,
How 'bout a tshirt with a picture of me?!

i love it, i have never in my life written a limerick! But for not knowing anything different it sounded great!

OK I will give it a try.

Just about every other day
I come to see what Jody has to say
You never know what you will read
Some days it is just what I need
I glad I stumbled upon it one day!

I just noticed my last line should have said "I am glad" :)

I love to read Jody's blog
It brings me comfort
like a faithful dog
Sometimes I laugh,
sometimes I cry
When her hair turned purple
I had to sigh
I come here often to check and see just what Jody has waiting for me!

A girl named Jody visited my blog one day,
she found me through another in a roundabout way,
I'm so glad she posted,
she's the blogger with the mostest,
and now I feel like I have a new friend!

How's this for my first limerick?? ;-)

There is a blog that I often read
Whenever I find myself in need
For inspiration or motivation
NittyGritty's the BEST blog indeed!

Ok I am going to give it a go!

I started writing my feelings and thoughts one day.
I found another that had something to say.
Jody was her name,
I found she feels the same.
Even though she is far far away,
I feel as though I had met her oneday.
I look forward to her inspiration,
I pray for her daily salvation.
For being a mother is hard,
But there really is a reward.
When at the end of the day
you see their bright, smiling eyes
It makes all the bad things go away
And makes us all want to cry.
