I will add another galaxy to your already numerous awards. Obviously took a lot of time and effort to put all this work together, and the Gaelic days of the week added interest, everyone likes to know more about the Irish. Good idea to explain everything in your footnotes, and the story of Donal is the epitome of Irish Folklore.
Congrats on All Time Best!

Thank you so much for your feedback, I was hoping that you would get the chance before the promo ran out. This is my best writing yet.
, and my tenth all-time best. Yours was the ninth six star review, and the 75th review for this work.
I am truly honored.
Blessings,
Brother Badger

You have composed a very interesting story in limerick form. And, thank you for the lesson for naming the days of the week. The illustration you chose enhances your gay poetry, written for St. Pat's Day (I am a bit late, unfortunately to read it). Well done.

Love how you so creatively tell this bio story, and almost in a sort of musical rhythm sense... Which I can tell through your words before ever reading about you...
I absolutely love the last three verses... Some of my favorite lines:
He began to weep,
while losing sleep
The path to her door was wide,
she had slipped away,
in a mysterious way~
Sucked into a twisting swirly (And the whole last verse) Love it...

This poem did make me smile, although some verses didn't sound much like a limerick and a bit rushed. I always thought a limerick was a four-lined stanza. Thank you for sharing.

Limericks are generally five lines, ex.
"There once was a man from Nantucket,
Who's shilang was so long, he could suck it,
He said with a grin,
As he wiped off his chin,
If my ear were a *unt I would *uck it.
You'll pardon the slang and vulgarity, it was th best example that I could think of
Thanks!

Comment from Thomas Bowling
As I read it I sang along in an Irish accent. I did't do a jig. I'm not Irish enough for that. Your picture is perfect for this song. I posted a song, "Fifteen Beers Ago." Let me know if you would be interested in writing music for it and sharing the copyright.

Thank-you so much. That's ok, s"She" is a metaphor for meth, as it turns out. Might I recommend my latest post, which is promoted and on the first page, titled,
"Irish limerick suite: Epilogue
It is the sixth chapter in my biography.
Thanks so much for your kind words and continued support~
Blessings,

I am so sorry for the mistake, but then again; to have gotten rid of that is better and wiser. I will go back to beginning so I'm not out of the loop. lol
Have a good night Kerry
