An Old Hawk On Steroids! (Limerick) Poem by Savita Tyagi
An Old Hawk On Steroids! (Limerick)
Limerick Form
An old hawk flies high on steroids,
Of youthful instincts he is devoid.
Soon runs out of his fuel!
Nothing to perk the old mule,
A crash landing he can't avoid!
Verse Form
An old hawk flies high on steroids
But of youthful instincts he is devoid
Soon runs out of his artificial fuel!
Now nothing to perk the old mule
A flop on hacienda heights he can't avoid!
1 – re: Poet's Notes: thanks, BUT if this is making fun of YOU, and IF you are female, as your photo SEEMS to show you are, why use the pronoun " he" ? ? " hacienda heights" ..sounds like a gated community. is that where " he" crashed? nice h/h alliteration.
Thanks Bri for your comment. Note was added later. While writing the poem I simply used an metaphor suited most to express a thought.
Nice reading the full poem, thank s for sharing poet.

2 – i MUCH prefer the limerick form, but the 1st version is not as bad as my private message may have suggested it is. ha ha. the limerick version is …(to quote a world-renowned poem critic: ME) …fantastic. a trip to MyPoemList is deserved and is coming up ASAP. if i were reading aloud i'd be sure to give emphasis to last syllables in lines 1,2, & 5 of limerick. bri :)
