Limerick- Mediocrity Poem by Valsa George

Good one. I think it is fine to be Mediocre. Sometime it feels it is the experts that mess up things!

r u by any chance recalling the one all know playing the violin he is supposed to have said ROME IS BURNING BUT NO one told me hE WENT BACK TO PLAY HIS violin HE was also another NERO

Quite interesting on Mediocrity....Yes, sometimes one's name doesn't really mean his or her behaviour and character....a good limerick with good rhyming words...10

It is getting harder and harder to find a hero these days in positions of political power- -but that is alright- I love the everyday people who are heroes in that they extend a helping hand to their fellow man out of brotherly love! ! ! 10++

you have me reading limericks- but only yours so far- -I like the intelligent air about yours- -you are quite an inspiration for us non-limerick writers!

This seriously made me laugh. The historical reference made in this limerick takes this to a new level. Glad that this Nero is not a tyrant as his namesake was.

Your limericks always make me smile, Valsa. Also, you follow the rules of limerick writing strictly most of the time, and so your limericks are, to me, worth reading and learning from. I have observed that you always mention about the syllables in the 'Poet's Notes'. That's a good practice that helps the readers.

Wonderful limerick crafted with ease and wit. Amazingly humorous and very entertaining. It is hard if we got zero when it comes to practical skills.. Another excellent write. Onto my Poem List.
