Lance Greenfield has taken over from Esther while she recuperates as the Limerick promoter in chief. This week’s words were
Moist
Damp
Wet
And this is what I came up with…
In surveys, the worst word is moist
But really if you were given a choist
Where would you rank
Words like feces and dank?
Would you still put moist as foist?
*
When the weather turns murky and damp
I find my buttocks will cramp.
To try and imagine
The extent of my chagrin
It’s like putting your arse in a clamp.
*
I long ago ceased to fret
When people described me as wet
If I become decisive
They turn derisive
And then up the het they will get

About TanGental
My name is Geoff Le Pard. Once I was a lawyer; now I am a writer. I've published several books: a four book series following Harry Spittle as he grows from hapless student to hapless partner in a London law firm; four others in different genres; a book of poetry; four anthologies of short fiction; and a memoir of my mother. I have several more in the pipeline.
I have been blogging regularly since 2014, on topic as diverse as: poetry based on famous poems; memories from my life; my garden; my dog; a whole variety of short fiction; my attempts at baking and food; travel and the consequent disasters; theatre, film and book reviews; and the occasional thought piece. Mostly it is whatever takes my fancy.
I avoid politics, mostly, and religion, always. I don't mean to upset anyone but if I do, well, sorry and I suggest you go elsewhere.
These are my thoughts and no one else is to blame. If you want to nab anything I post, please acknowledge where it came from.
Stick to your normal verses 🙂

Brother, if you are connected to a limerick blog, perhaps the members could help with a limerickian conundrum.
Dad had a last line for a limerick, but could never complete it;
“And shattered her(or his) personal best!”
Any assistance would be gratefully received.

A sprinter whose tummy was stressed
appeared in a race as a guest
Whilst running, alas,
he had to pass gas
and shattered his personal best
