YOUNG….OLD
When I was young I was top of the world, I never felt bad
Now that I'm old I creak, I groan, I wander, where are the looks I had?
In me wee early days I coulda used a good strapping 🙃
Here lately I’d love a good napping 💤
I say, TIME is life's greatest absurdity, for every lass and lad!

So 'I' - As Ringo Star (Beatles) once said: "I'm just happy to be here." - You're always fun in your 'Absurdity' sorta way. J-Bud
This was a fun limerick, brought a smile to my face! Nicely done, Will! 💜
👍
Woe is 'us'. Time runs so fast, we can't catch it. My poor bones. enjoyed the puns and such.
Napping is literally all I want to do anymore 🤣. This was great!! Time is definitely absurd!
Fun piece. Time is absurd. I struggled to wrap my head around the concept when I was younger. I was always question time until I realised I was annoying everyone. So I stopped and bought a watch 😅
napping sums up life in my 40s! well done at capturing something many of us are familiar with! I thought I was subscribed already, but wasn't! now Iam!
True words...Well done
Good job as always Will...
Pffft, tell me about it! Time's absurd alright! Cool limerick!
You’re not wrong 😑 nice one!
What is that old expression "Youth is wasted on the young! " Something like that. I think I need a good napping! Great Limerick ☘️💚☘️💚
Your limerick captures the bittersweet feelings that come with aging and reminiscing about youth. Keep up the good work!👌👌👍💗
