perhaps the only entry in this contest not complaining about the weather! I don't think I'd swap Spain for the UK either.

I've docked you one star for poor Limerick construction - I know the conditions said not to worry too much, but they did indicate that lines 3&4 needed to be shorter and in the traditional Limerick and in the sample poems shown they are considerably shorter. In fact, your short lines aren't bad - it's the other three lines that could do with lengthening.

Ciao !
I gave you your third vote.

We had a second house in Spain for 16 years ( Tossa De Mar) .We sold it when my mamma died suddenly in 2006 .

The climate was decidedly hotter in Summer and milder in Winter than in North Italy ( close to the Apls) where we have cold snowy winters.

I wish you all the best in the contest!

This hemispherick limerick, Southern Spain, has the proper structure and proves that the rain in Spain falls mainly in the United Kingdom.

I like this post about where you live. On my bucket list is a visit to Spain. Need to hurry for I am getting old. Love the picture.
One little flaw: aint....ain't needs apostrophe
Have a great day!

I loved this contest entry! It made me want to move to Spain :)
Loved the artwork;
you clearly described the weather in Spain; liked how you compared it to the UK;
the yellow choice of background gave credence to the sunnyness of Spain.
Awesome work!

Poet is happy to live in sunny southern Spain, they hardly get rain there, they came from the U.K. and do not like to go back there where it rains every day; well said, well done. Keep Writing Inspire Changing -- DR ALCREATOR
