P. Picasso while painting pubescents
sensed a surge in his senile excrescence
and abandoned his toils
for venereal spoils
to be thwarted by sad obsolescence

Best laugh of the day, John. Thanks!
Thank you, Willow. My little ‘silly saturday’ effort
Why does it not surprise me that you write masterful limericks? The alliteration adds a wonderful touch to the first half of this, and your command of both vocabulary and rhythm is astounding!
Mark, thank you. I have a few more ‘acceptable’ ones but most aren’t suitable for general viewing, it’s easier to write bawd than polite so they’ll stay buried..another, next ‘silly saturday’
Again, my best to you, Generous Friend
Ha. Excellent, John. I wrote one on a similar theme (Pablo) for NaPoWriMo this year. This is like a poetry slam! Ha.
An extra point for finding a rhyme for “pubescents.” Ten extra for even knowing the word “excrescence”!!!!
Tried to like it twice, but it just unliked you, so actually I liked you thrice which shows up as once. And I must amend that you get two extra points as you rhymed pubescents twice. Does this feel like I’m stalking you, leaving three messages for one limerick? Not stalking. Just disorganized.
Thank you, Judy. Don’t worry about stalking, impossible to stalk me, at my age, if it were true it’d be an honour. Bless your good heart.

May the creative juices ever flow!
Very witty, John!
Yes, Chris, I hope they keep flowing…and not just mine but the juices of all who make ink meet paper.
Thank you, My Friend, for the support and encouragement
John
Clever!
Thank you, Gina, thank you
Gave me a smile. Fun!
Thank you, Sabra, and glad it made you smile
Best wishes
John

Your humor never fails to give me a proper chuckle John. I am looking forward t next Saturday.
Happy indeed you liked it, Jon, My Friend

Thank you, Mihrank
I do love a good limerick! In fact, many years ago my mother recognized my affinity for poetry and literature. She bought me a book entitled “Bawdy Limericks” which was quite out of character for her! We quietly shared the same twisted sense of humour! I kept that book many years and enjoyed frequent laughter from it…quite a lady that mom of mine!
The subtlety of this is marvelous John!
Thank you, Don, and bless that good mother of yours! Happy you like the limerick, i do share your taste for them and please look out for another tomorrow – my silly saturday moment
Again, thank you
