Storic (Limerick)
I know a great poet named Storic,
who is not just old, she's historic,
a grandma to all,
she follows her call,
her poems are all but rhetoric.

This poem won galfalfa's contest "Nutty Naughty Limerick Contest". 
A limerick is a poem that is supposed to be a little funny, maybe teasing, even naughty, but never rude... Hope you like the limerick, Storic!

Hi, Shahrzad! LOL! I found the photo on Google, searching for "Troll". The female creature in the picture is a Norwegian troll in a traditional Norwegian costume called bunad.
Thanks for the comment!

Thanks for the comment and the applause, Lencio. Limericks are not that difficult, but you have to follow the syllable count, not only rhyme pattern, as many do. Jim
