I am filled with love
It moves like fluttering birds
In my beating heart
A limerick
(For Teddy, based on a true incident)
There once was a Bichon named Ted
Who liked to run under the bed.
When we called her name
She chose to remain
And had to be swept out instead.

Did I ever mention how hugely annoying it is that when I’m doing my posts, I can’t just put in spaces and other formatting and have them show up??? And then when I finally find the “space” symbol in HTML and put it in, the preview shows it correctly but when I got back to edit anything, “it” takes out all the spacing again??? I worked for over half an hour trying to get the spaces correct on the first poem and then when I published it, they were gone, so I had to go in again at least a couple times. Why can’t it just format the way I put it in??

Never heard of a “name poem” before, but like yours a lot. Will have to give it a try.
Thanks, Robin. Let me know how it goes.
