This is for my sister, Kathy Lockhart. We call her kack


Limerick For A Lady

I know a geat lady called Kack
With words she has a knack
She spins them and plays them
builds and fillets them
But always keeps them on track

"She spins them and plays them
builds and fillets them":
I call that good limerickin'!
(But I just noticed: "lands" in place of "builds" would round out the funny angling metaphor you've got going!? What do you think? In any case, makes me feel life going fishing!)

Kathy Lockhart
Yes, sure sis! You know me!
I lumber around
trying to keep one foot
on the ground,
but my head does spin
while the vortex pulls me in
and then
spits me out
without a doubt
completely
upside
down.
