Limerick - Itching Tastebuds Poem by Valsa George

Limerick - Itching Tastebuds

Rating: 5.0


There was a boy who loved custard
For a change, he ate it with mustard
Though it tasted awful
And the boy felt doleful
"Yummy"! He said with a smile plastered!

Magnificent, Valsa. There is a great insight into human psychology here. This reminds me of the mindset that refuses to acknowledge a bad decision. The boy knows he made a bad move. Everybody knows he did....but he just doesn't want to admit to the obvious...c'est la vie. Perfectly done, Valsa. A 10.

hahahahahahahahahaha- -I remember how as a child I would not admit I had made a bad choice but soldier on like I was happy with the result. This is such a reality-based limerick and that makes it the best kind of limerick! ! ! 10++++++++

his experiment failed, but he wanted to keep a brave face. But he was immortalized in a limerick. Lovely.

Yummy limerick. Best the way to smile when he can neither tell nor keep to himself. Loved your pen Valsa.
