For Declan Poem by Herbert Nehrlich

For Declan

Rating: 5.0


There once was a fellow named D.
he had misunderstood little me.
Though his poems ain't bad
and he is a good lad
so let pax for the two of us be.

So this limerick was writ just to say
that in life it is better to play
than to act like two farts
who would hurl poisoned darts
let me know if it's Aye or Nay.

There once were two boys who played badly, silent onlookers observing rather sadly. Now these two lovely guys each so learned and wise have made up, we all see, and so gladly! A good man to seek the peace and a good man to accept it. t x

Likewise I agree, our peace Is the order of the day; thank you for this posted piece. Indeed, it's good to play. (And to clarify and by the way this is of course an 'Aye') . Cheers mate.
