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.
Love the limerick. I’ve written a few in my time, too.
Dog, as many have said, is a wise creature, and, he will be pleased to know, nothing like a cat. So does that make you a poet if he’s not a cat?
Beautiful, and a wonderful dog! Thanks for sharing! xx Michael

Love it.
Reminds me of this
I wish I were a glow worm,
Coz glow worms are not glum,
How can you be downhearted
When a light shines out your bum?
Not exactly a limerick, and I didn’t write it, but it’s worth a smile!

He’s a shrewd judge of the hubristic male…

Hubristic is a great word for dogs to say. No doubt the emphasis is on the first syllable.

I think not having opposable thumbs makes certain consonants a challenge…
