I once knew a blond from McMaster
Who was trying to run a lot faster
When she finished the race
She was stuck in last place
The whole thing was quite a disaster
Author notes
Reni likes to run and is such an excellent runner that she will never finish last.

Commentary
This is compact enough to where even without the accompanying picture, the image of the individual running is still present while holding a bit of whimisical fortitude about what that person is thinking

Pure Limerick
This is how a limerick is supposed to work. Very Funny! -
You've been Hood-winked!!!
This is excellent! Positively wonderful limerick with a flawless flow. Congrats on winning the Gold. It's obvious that it was much deserved! Fantastic short piece!

I know a mod named Paul.
to me he seems very tall.
When he needs to take action
There can be no distraction
He's a great mod all-in-all.
