Rainbow Lorikeets

24 Comments

It’s limerick month. I won’t necessarily do one a day, but maybe every second day or so.

 

 

Two lorikeets in Lover’s Lane,

He hopes she won’t leave him in pain, 

His eyes close in love

As he coos from above,

And she whispers, “Oh, say it again!”

    When the Captain was commercial fishing, he didn’t shave until he came back into town and when he visited friends (before he had a chance to change from his fishing clothes), their little three-year-old twins (you know them) climbed all over him as he sat in a chair. He gave them a hug and his whiskers rubbed their faces. They told him, “YOU stink!” and they squealed as he gave them a whiskery face rub. They would laugh and say, “Do it again!” This is what I thought of when I heard the bird say, “Oh, say it again.”
