By no stretch of the imagination am I close to anything remotely resembling a poet but during lockdown I started writing poetry.
As well as attempting to write haikus for the first time (not as hard as I thought they would be), I also dabbled with free verse and limericks. I must say that of all the poetic forms limericks are the ones that strike a chord with me most. I think it’s the comic twist at the end that always gets me.
So I wrote some lockdown-themed limericks and I saw an online magazine that was looking for submission of any creative writing that was written during the pandemic. I thought why not see if I can get them published? I didn’t have high hopes of them being published but I found out yesterday they have been.
I warn you that they’re not the best limericks in the world but I hope you enjoy them anyway. You can read them here.
Thank you to the folks at Invictus for investing so much time into getting these fantastic scribblings published!
Your limerick was a delight indeed
It made for a very good read
I wish you had more
To rid me of bore…
…dom, it’s exactly what I need
Thanks for sharing!
