The Woman Who Raised Me 'Hlm'

riding in Amtrak southbound to San Diego viewing scenic coast Be with my Mommy sometimes on weekend. The time for the two of us, when we tend to act like silly girls. Dancing, doing some twirls while singing karaoke songs we shared. she has been gone for years; but our times together live on, I miss her. 1/22/22 Charlie Hai-Lim-Ku Poetry Charles Messina Used: How Many Syllables (5/7/5 - 10/10/6/6/10 - 17) RhymeZone

Marilene, although I liked your poem, the last line in your limerick did not rhyme with lines 2 and 3. So sorry had to give you an HM. Hope all is well. Hugs Charlie

Charlie, thank you very much for my placement considering I made a boo... boo... You do not have to be sorry. Thanks again for your kindness... and for pointing it out for me. I am well, just wrapped up with many things I need to attend to. Pardon me, for my lateness in responding. Have a great day.
