Sneeze
I hear the flock of sheep beyond the trees.
Trees outside window whisper with the breeze.
The breeze of Autumn draws near;
this day's sunlight brings Bri cheer,
BUT too much sunshine makes old Bri sneeze! !

Bird Feeder
No pigs to feed, no PC to 'pound',
most of my hours I just sit around, ....
waiting for, birds, to see,
sometimes none, sometimes three.
From them I rarely hear a sound.

Simplified Eating
Give me good food with no fancy frills,
meals requiring no advanced skills.
I abhor big bones jutting!
I detest needed-cutting!
I'll like it when all meals are just pills! !

Flat Earth
Wife's latest theory is: 'Earth is flat'.
I say 'I'll never believe THAT! '
I think she is serious,
but think she's delirious.
Sooner I'd believe that Santa's not FAT! !

Don't Say: 'I Give Up! '
God DID; look around you. You will see.
I did NOT. My fourth wife followed three.
T. Edison found 'the best',
long-life filaments his quest.
Now we've safe lights for....Christmas Tree!

I am loving your Limericks. You have an uncanny sense of humor.
Hi, that's good. Hope Bharati enjoyed all the Limericks. I am sure, she enjoys good humour, which you rarely find outside Bri's writing. A tiny 5* from my side
What does your fifth limerick say? I find it a bit difficult to comprehend.
IT 'MEANS' God gave up before Creation was perfect, & it means that I kept divorcing & marrying untiI now have my 4th wife. And inventor T. Edison worked until he was satisfied.
(Part-3) I think simple food is good for our health. As we age, simple food becomes necessity.
(Part-2) Your first two limericks say how you spend your time without a computer and also your pet pigs.Nature is a solace, but not having a computer to pound is really sad for a poet and writer like you.
This poem has not been translated into any other language yet.
I would like to translate this poem
Hi Bri! I must thank you for these limericks, moreover considering me a good PoemHunter friend.
