Limerick Five
The Vindictive One
A thief stole my package and walked it
Away down the block, but then dropped it.
How I wish I had been
On the street when he’d seen
That I’d filled up that box with some dog shit.

Not a true story. I'd never do this. Probably.

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"
