🦃Thanksgiving Limericks🦃
Greetings, Steemians!
). It's a weird time for many nowadays, but I like to think of it as merely a prompt to be more aware of what we are thankful for. I really love spending the day just thanking everything: my husband, our fur buddies, the trees, the wind (I love the wind- most days 😏), the bugs, the bad days and the good and now STEEMIT! 😍
It's nice to have a reminder to do this, even though we really should strive to do it daily and often. 😍
This week @lymmerik's Lymmerik's Limerick Contest is Thanksgiving themed. 🦃 Yay! It doesn't end until Friday midnight Arizona time (so get to it!).
Truth be told, I've spent the last several days just thinking about Thanksgiving. It's been quite lovely, as I've only thought of the happiest times. 😆 Most of my limericks were coming out on the side of sappy... and that's not in the spirit of a limerick!
I decided to just rhyme with turkey.
Below is the work of art that came of that, and my OFFICIAL ENTRY into the contest:
TURKEY DAY
My demeanor is growing more perky
Miraculous food
enjoyed in the nude
I'm nothing if not a bit quirky!
Then I switched gears again thinking of funny Thanksgiving day moments... and BAM! Another gem.
I think we can all relate or have witnessed the happenings below. 😁
RELAXED
with pants unfasted upon the couch.
His eyes start to droop,
His limbs they did sloop
'til he fell on the floor with an, "OUCH!"

That’s a couple of fun limericks
I remembered reading this in school I used to be good writing limericks wonder when I stopped hmm pondering 🤔
Start again! They are great to get your brain moving! Plus, full disclosure, I use https://www.rhymezone.com/ to help me out.
You should pop over to the contest and read others. People that have been participating are getting so much better. They are really fun to read. However, my hubs will probably maintain his status as "King of the Limericks". They literally just fall out of him! 😆
I will try and check them out sometime, the start of Steemusa has been hectic and I am running behind but hope to catch up this weekend
There once was turkey stuffed with jam and jellies
