Limerick- Miser (Sad) Poem by Valsa George

Limerick- Miser (Sad)

Rating: 4.8


In a village, lived a sworn miser
Earning more and more was his sole desire
Ate nothing, to save money
Soon he became so scrawny
In the end, lay useless as a flat tire

Very interesting story. Perhaps he will take his money to other world after his death and spend there. Loved it.

This is humor at its best. Sadness of situation still leaves a smile thinking we all are responsible for the outcome brought upon by our actions.

A wonderful limerick with a great message. Middle course is the best course; neither misery, nor extravagance. Loved the comments of Susan Williams and Paul Brookes.

When all a person finds attractive is money, they never lived until they died. They were the walking dead amid a grey and joyless country. Shiver! That is an awful waste of the gift of life. Top marks, Valsa!
