Limericks: "Jeena Baked a Pie" and "A Guy Named Dan"

“Jeena Baked a Pie”
August 26, 2018

Jeena wanted to bake a pie
This dessert was her very first try
And when it came out
She gave out a shout
It looked like a bug with one eye

“A Guy Named Dan”
August 27, 2018

A guy from the city named Dan
He was clever and he had a plan
He wanted the money
So he left his honey
And he became rich once again

Poem: A Vampire's Game

In a fantasy dream
In the darkness that surrounds
There’s an alley abandoned
And a vampire that roams

He drinks blood from his victims
From brokenhearted women
He thinks that he’s saving them
From the pain of sour love

But he’s hurting them more
Because a love that is sour
Can become sweet at last
When a heart is open once more
To the possibility of a new beginning
And letting love in without restraint
Even if there is bitterness along the way

This poem was written July 17, 2018 from a word list prompt: darkness, fantasy, alley, vampire, blood.

Two New Limericks

“Grandpa and His Eggs”
July 31, 2018

A grandpa was carrying eggs
They fell down and cracked on his legs
Being covered in yolk
He turned into a bloke
For fried eggs and ham he now begs

“A Lady Named Barb” 
August 13, 2018

A lady named Barb was a singer
When she sang her notes did linger
But the hiccups came out
And the notes gave out
She sounded like the telephone ringer
