Party Wrap

I surely enjoyed my first blog party. It was far bigger and busier than I ever expected. I am again struck by the notion of what an unusual group this is.

There are other boggy communities I visit.  Some about small business, some for designers, some for  horsey people. But even though I enjoy these  other locations, it isn't the same as here.

Here we are a group of diverse interests  but somehow this community is a staple in the lives of the regulars. I find this a present  in my life. Blessings on you all.

Okay back to the games!
There are some limericks I didn't get posted before the deadlines. Maybe it was the bubbles. When I set about cleaning up my office I tore scribbled sheets off the legal pad and tossed 'em in  the trash. Later I knocked the basket over. When I picked up the limericks scratch pad I read a bit and found  myself laughing out loud at the foolishness written there.

In my family I am known for writing really bad, really funny "poetry". Back in middle school, about the same time I was getting over my first heart break, I also got a poetry writing homework assignment. We had all been encouraged to " write what you feel". What I was feeling was that mix of hurt and anger that accompanies a break up. So my  poem was this:

"If you love me no more
Drop dead on the floor"

Unfortunately for me, an older sibling found my homework and broadcast her findings to the merriment of all.
So bravely and foolishly, for your merriment, I will now post all the limericks. It was my intent to write limericks about all the game hosts for our virtual party. But the more I partied .. well you know.  Some were posted over at Aunty's games, some are as they were in the trash, others have now been completed. May you all have a good laugh.

AUNTY:

There is a fine Aunty from Natchez
Her batiste is always in patches
When she was asked why
She replied wif a sigh,
When I itches, I scratches!


BOXER:

Boxer, our dog decorating host
Encourages competitive posts
Her motives are clear
A profitable new year
For  charities coast to coast!


TROLL:

Gameleader Troll returned to our blogs
Makin' us happy as mud swallowed hogs
Beat my best score!
He challeged by roar,
Alas, no score! Effective egg nogs!


EGGY:

TopEggy's brunch looks tres yummy,
Really teasing this virtual tummy
With culinary feats galore
And new drinkies to explore?
Woe! that I'm home with my Honey.

MOI;

Moi professed her big  love for Ivan
And confessed her marathon strivin'
But first there was brunch,
To be followed by lunch
What amazing  caloric connivin!

CHICKORY:

Strung papers and glue gunning stickery
Resulted from classes with Chickory
Our fingers are sore
From helpin the poor
But goodness is everyones victory !

( still LOL over her word "flabulous" )

GENERAL:

Michelle the First Lady Slacker
Rides a smiling poll taking tracker
" For Dumbama!" she claims
While gripping the reins
No wonder the media all back her!
