There once was a girl filled with 'fuck its.'
'Can't write 'bout purple clouds raining buckets.'
'Think I'll make a poem instead.'
Grabbed her paper and lead,
And out popped only two words–'fuck it.'

So you can blame this entire limerick attempt on Paul. He started doing them after the haiku challege was over as something new to try. Now I've got all these sing-song-y verses floating around in my head, lol.

Omg this poem can be used for so many things in life. Love it. Well I actually mean the other word "_______ it" 😆
This is so accurate and awesome! I think Vocal read this and thought... "Yrp. Let's do that next!" Lol
Haha! I love this
LOL! Awesome limerick!
Oh, I’m definitely feeling this. With the time travel challenge I had too many ideas and couldn’t get a single one fleshed out enough in time and this one is the complete opposite. I’m stumped.
It had happened couple of times with me too. Thinking of this idea, at times driven me crazy too. Good one , Heather.
Lols! 🤣Love it. Now I have ear worm! 🤣 My brain did that with the Time Travel challenge, and then two days before it closed dumped an idea on me I couldn’t ignore! Talk about a time-crush to get the dang thing done. I totally blame Paul and yourself as this ditty is gonna stay in my head all day 💕🙂💕
ooooooh bravo! i take full responsibility then cos that was great!
Ha! Brill!
HAHAHAHA! I love it!
What's worse is when your brain says "fuck it" during the first days of the challenge, only to pop up with THE BEST IDEA less than a week before it's due. Great limerick by the way 🤣
Hear, hear...I like this one a lot!
Hahahahaha, I guess I will write a poem with swear words pretty soon. This is funny Heather 🤣
Lol, that's exactly how I felt about this challenge!
Haha! I FELT this! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
What can I say... You definitely have character!!! I'm inspired also to put my own limerick out there!!!
Heehee, I'm not feeling that magical realism prompt either.
A lovely little bit of fun
Once again we are very connected. I literally just gave up on trying to write fiction for the Purple Challenge. I said, "Forget about it. I'm feeling a poem instead!" And now I feel so much better :)
🤣🤣🤣 loved it.
This is hilarious lol.
Awesome and so fun!! Also...you know me...I love that word 😅 "Buckets" Great job!! ❤️
Hahahah. Pretty much how I feel about Purple clouds. Love it!
LOL, I saw the image and was like...oh no..no more purple clouds! But this was awesome 🤣🤣
