Poetic Apology to Mikey
a contrite limerick
There once was a woman that writes
Inspiration eluded her sights
Then- viola!- inspired!
YAY!-wrote 'til she tired
But she botched it now needs her last rites.
-
Mike was not, and should not, be seen as the inspiration for my Humor piece.
Frankly- I am not funny and should have known better.
I was doing some reading, saw the same EXACT set-up on another person's page: and (as the poem says) viola!
I'd eat my hat but I'm too busy eating crow.
My sincere apologies, Mikey!

This sad
This made me smile. Nicely Done!!!
Nahhhh, I don't think you botched it. And you're definitely funny!
Did you mean "viola" (stringed instrument in the alto range of the orchestra) or "voila!" (there it is)? For if it is the instrument you have intended, you may find Mikey more likely to "string you up" & hoist you by your own petard rather than forgive, lol.
This made me smile Judey!! I think you're wittier than you know!! 😅
You can't eat your hat, Vocal didn't give you one yet ROFL <3
Me lost as well “The Mikey we all know, Vocal Mike, purple heart 💜 Mikey?” hehe. This got interesting 🤣🤣😆 great apology poem though.
A very interesting piece of work, Ms. K!
Ohoh... I missed it!😉❤️
What a poem that is very interesting and,this poem humorously acknowledges creative struggles and missteps,You creation is always impressive among the reader.This is thoroughly reading and express my thoughts.I pray to your story to be hit top of the table as a best story.
Viola indeed, we should be able to make fun of anything and I found your story very funny. You might end up with two top stories out of this :)
