The Garden Gnome (A limerick)

I once thought that I'd settle for tin
and did not mind if I didn't win,
I fleshed out golden poems
got a cranky old gnome,
It soiled my lawn to my chagrin.

Let me know How this makes you feel, what do you think?

    I plan to revise this poem: please leave constructive criticism!

    very funny! I see you there commenting on many things I comment on or are interested in. There is a funny story of a fraternity prank and a garden gnome: perhaps you'd like to write about it: one day a couple who had a particularly atrocious example of such awoke to find their gnome was gone. The only evidence was a postcard in their mail slot telling them that said gnome deserved a vacation. At irregular intervals they received photographs of their gnome in front of various wonders of the world: the Eiffel tower, etc.
    One day they woke up to find him back in his place with SURPRISE! a female gnome there as well. There was a photo and a postcard in their mailbox that said :"Got married in France". Thought you might like it. I hope so!
