Jarred

image by Manu Pombrol

The whiz always read on a pot
Sipped his whiskey at the same spot
Until one Sunday
He was flushed away
Confined to a jar, he's now caught

Lovely, Laurie...
that's what you get
when you are flushed with success!

Margaret said...

reading and whiskey on the pot? ...he looks quite content in the jar, though. I admire anyone who can do a limerick well! Nice.
