In flashy clothes as he went to town
He looked as awkward as a clown
Belly like a balloon,
Manner like a buffoon,
No wonder, all stand and frown
Belly like a balloon, Manner like a buffoon......... ha..ha....ha........... Limerick so simple and nice. Enjoyed. Thank you for sharing.X

Belly like a balloon, .........Manner like a buffoon, .........amusing. Nice limerick with fun and photo. Thanks for sharing.
You, my dear, are the Great Mistress of Limericks. I never cared for them until I read yours and not I look through your poetry for one. I tried to write one recently and now I shall leave these to you experts! ! Thank you, Valsa, for sharing all your various forms of poetry. 10++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Thank you Susan! Glad I could find one who can really enjoy my limericks! It is an easy way of writing, still serves to create a light moment! 'Great Mistress of Limericks'....... Does it fit me? ? However so happy and excited that you have given me that title!
You have really created the entire scene craftily. So dramatic and so comical. Graphic plays its part well. Thanks, Valsa ji.
Thank you Rajnish sir for appreciating my limericks and having made a series of beautiful comments!
First thought that came to mind is, wonder how the poor buffoon felt about himself. Others seeing him as kind of a joke and laughing at him. You have captured humanity in a moment of cruelty, all can probably relate to at some time in their lives. Great insight, Valsa! 10+ Thank you for sharing. RoseAnn

Limerick with humour - 'Belly like a balloon' - The picture and the words synchronise so well! I always wondered about the feelings of these buffoons! Though others frown and laugh at them, yet i feel they are sad people.
