whoops! - missed the start.
so here are four quick entries to make up.

Limerick 1
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Went on a drinking binge
For he thought it a crime
To waste his time
Finding a rhyme for orange.
Limerick 2
An author most offending
Wrote stories that were pending
The beginnings were fine
As was each middle line
But he could never think of an ending
Limerick 3
The Irish poet Thomas Moore
Leapt from the seventh floor
Hitting the dirt
Without getting hurt
For it was all just a metaphor.
Limerick 4
An author by the name of Hinks
Concocted his own range of inks
Made from old fish
Mashed in a dish
No wonder his writing stinks.
She lost herself in the trees,
among the ever-changing leaves.
She wept beneath the wild sky
as stars told stories of ancient times.
The flowers grew toward her light,
the river called her name at night.
She could not live an ordinary life,
with the mysteries of the universe
hidden in her eyes....
Author: Christy Ann Martine
Death leaves a heartache no one can heal,
love leaves a memory no one can steal....
Author unknown.
So cool!
I wrote THIS for/about you
Are you going to write all 30 about famous people?
#1 I think i'd lose "for" it would flow better
#2 Meter seems off on second line
#3 Last line a little hinky, I think
#4 Don't see a problem with this one
Some suggestions, but like them all.
"Self-righteousness never straddles the political fence."

"The bible says to love your neighbor. It's obvious that over the centuries it has been interpreted as the opposite."

Enjoyed them all, ned!
There is substance in the silence of solitude; it reaches where words can only fumble, falter, and bewilder.
Thanks for the chuckle. Keep it up!
