Some dream about a simpler life
Away from politics and strife
Maybe Hebrides?
No celebrities 👍
And silence it cuts like a knife

A giant wave once engulfed me
I’d thought I was in a calm sea
Once swept to the shore
Got sea-sand galore

Mell967 this thread is in the limerick form 8 8 5 5 8 and we copy the previous lines then add the next one.
Do give it a go.

The sound of the sea soothes me
And I feel at peace

In winter I swim in the sea
I'd only do it for a fee
Are you a whale
So cold I'd flail
I’d rather have a cup of tea

Ye gads! Are you a whale?

Back when my grandparents were wed
The service was mostly priest led
These days all has changed
Words are rearranged
Plus their children are bridesmaids, it’s said

Until I turn on the news
Or read opposing GN views
Always food for thought
Truth and answers sought
And only opinions to loose

I'm pleased I've retired now though
At amusing myself I'm a pro
No morning alarm
I’m always so calm
My blood pressure stays nice and low

Time to get back down to work
Are holidays simply a perk
A reward I'd say
Along with our pay
Shoulder to the wheel and don't shirk.
