Savage
Discovering the chicken coop damaged,
said the farmer, “I must find this savage!”
He sent out the hounds
to cover more ground…
While away, all the chickens were ravaged!

Disclaimer: No wolves or chickens were harmed in the writing of this limerick! 🙂
A limerick based on this week’s prompt word, “Feral” (I used a synonym for my limerick: “Savage”). If you would like to participate in this challenge hosted by Rashmi at Mind and Life Matters Limerick Challenge, please click HERE.

She ran in the cold, heat and rain
everyday she would push past the pain
not to win any race
but to forget his face
moving on was her ultimate aim.

The valley is covered in blankets of mist
dew heavy clouds that descend for a tryst
though some find it dreary
who must venture out early
‘Tis heaven on earth…like a soft morning kiss!

Hidden away in an attic
’twas a potion believed to be magic
with the power to heal
it remained there concealed
in a world filled with suffering, how tragic!

Sages, Greek, surmised that happiness can’t be controlled
Mere random acts of favor from the gods on us bestowed.
But current thought has turned a page
Pursuit of bliss is all the rage
Where legislators wield the power once held by gods of old.
