EQ I'm so glad you have peace and quiet
No more ups, downs or riots
In your castle on a hill
All can be still
This could be a good time to start the diet!

(Sorry EQ but nothing else rhymed, I'm sure you don't need to diet, I hope you and your pup are very happy) Vicki xx

EQ, such a heart felt rhyme

Oh how do I write one of these?
It all seems like such a big tease.
I want to be cute, but who gives a hoot,
I'll probably fall down on my knees!!

This morning I've had such a nice surprise
Awaking to many great limericks for my eyes
EQ wrote us a long one: very pretty
Vicki, IWLAST, and SnoozyQ, sweet and witty
And a first from Venus, now in limericks she's baptized!


Here's a link for Vicki and SnoozyQ
You better not think Undies is coolest too
Although it can still have second best
Limericks really is better than all the rest
Fortunately, we can join them both and I hope you do

And watch the sun rise, who'dve guessed?

I've always been quite the night owl
And mornings? I'd greet with a growl!
But now I wake up
So that me (and my pup)
Watch the sun take its first morning bow!

With colors spectacular glowing
It wakes up our souls, never knowing
That in two thousand twelve
We were living in hell
And had no idea where we're going.

Now we've moved to our own private castle
And decided we're done with the hassle.
In Two thousand thirteen
We are dog and a Queen
With our monsters we no longer wrastle!

My prior life of grief and shame
It truly had drinking to blame.
Now I'm allowed joy
Just as all girls and boys
It's a sober life I'm proud to claim.

So now I do cautiously whisper
To bros and sobriety sisters:
You haven't a clue
What life's stored for you
And to think we all couldve missed her!

But somehow the universe dreampt
Up a life that was free of contempt
For our soul has been waiting
And been busy creating
The sober life for which we're meant.

Sobriety's been waiting for us
While drinking was driving our bus
Our own Gods had a plan
We are held in the hand
Of an artist whom we can trust.

Applause. The crowd gets to their feet in awe!!!
Wow.

And Snoozy ~ thank you for bringing me here love.

I am stunned and appreciative of all of the brilliance here.

So much love,

V xx

EQ thanks for letting us share,
your morning of sun and fresh air
Your prize for sobriety
Is natures entirety
Thank goodness there's plenty to spare!

Snoozyq you will soon find your day
Fills with finding rhymes in all you say
Hearing rhythm in talk
Timing steps as you walk
Looking for puns in word play

DG I grovel and cry
Can I tell you I said a big lie?
No one cooler out there,
WE have cool to spare
Don't send me away I might die!

The undies is great in is true
It has DG, me,Carlos, now you
But for talent and style
This wins by a mile
On here I rarely feel blue

But if I am sad and I write
My pain is down in black and white
And some how it lifts me
Expels pain with my gift, see
And helps me to sleep sound at night.

Carlos we should start a line
Of therapists curing with rhyme
The world would be brighter
Our hearts would be lighter
Politicians might agree..... Given time!

Venus you've been hiding your light!
I did always know you were bright
But to nail it so quick
I'm So jealous I feel sick,
Perhaps I should call it a night!

Vicki I'm watching you grow
From beginnings timorous and slow
Your confidence grows
With each of your odes
You are now rhyming like and old pro!

Life can be hard we know,
Hoping in time I will grow,
With strength I can fight,
Finding the light,
Then peacefully bound I will go.

V xx

You guys are so so amazing; I am humbled. ♥

Cat you are a busy li'l sprout
Studying inside and out
But life is for living
For taking and giving
Here's a virtual cola, my shout :-)

Xx :-)

Today I awoke very tired
Lucky it's a day off or I'd be fired
I just have horses to ride
Dressage test to learn, every stride
Upon their backs I'm always inspired

However I have a problem to say
Last night I went to AA
I'm scared I'm a fake
It makes my heart ache
Upon my mind troubles weigh

Of AV 'The Beast' I'm aware
But in AA they say, don't go there
Do as we do
Or you'll be in a stew
Just keep saying your prayers

A sponsor I have not
It's not that I forgot
Should I get one?
Programme to be done?
I'm confused quite a lot!!

I love my new sober life
Especially without all the strife
I want to stay this way
Forever and a day
So much confusion is running round rife!!

What lovely poems have been written!
With this thread I surely am smitten!
Thanks Toots, Bloss and DG,
IWILLLAST, Snoozyq, Vicki,
And of course, my dear, Venus Kitten!

You make me warm inside
You've sometimes made me cry.
With hearts full of rhyme,
Your posts often times,
Make me feel like a Limerick Bride!

Dear Vicki i sure feel your angst
The AV we give it no thanks
Some days are the pits
It gives me the *****
I wonder why i ever drank


I wake up and wonder today
Are things gonna go my way
When all is aglow
That voice that i know
Wants to ruin my wonderful day


3 months on im doing it tough
But one drink is never enough
Through lessons ive learnt
I will not get burnt
Cos i wont wake up feeling rough.


Just one drink im sure is ok
Yeah right! to my dismay,
You dont give a f..k
When im down on my luck
I just want you to go away.


Thank god for my friends here so dear
I can express what i truly fear
Putting in words
is not so absurd
When I vulnerably shed a tear .


I love my limerick friends , sniff xxx

Vicki I just need to say
I will not be dissing AA
But just take what feels right
To suit your sober fight
A mixture, for some is the way!
