limerick poetry challenge: happy

I’ve decided to participate in the Limerick Poetry Challenge at Mind and Live Matters. Not sure if I’ll do it every week – but I thought I’d give it a go.

Disclaimer: I’ve never written a limerick before.

This week’s prompt: happy

I drink too much coffee, some say.
I disagree, just five cups a day.
I’m addicted, it’s true.
I should cut down to two.
But my happiness wins so it stays.

About what sandra thinks

Sandra is a writer, sometimes blogger, poet, artist, emotional disaster. She thinks far too much and sleeps far too little. Sandra lives in the Northeastern U.S. but dreams of an oceanfront home in Italy, but she would settle for a non-oceanfront home in Italy. She loves books, brutal honesty, coffee, and the color black. She hates insincerity, beer, whipped cream, and facebook. And she is uncomfortable talking about herself in the third person.
