I'm honored and delighted! What a fun contest. I didn't hold out a lot of hope, as the competition was pretty fierce.
If I’d lost, it would surely be sad to me. If I won, would the losers get mad at me? But no one’s thrown curses At my humble verses. I’d just like to thank the Academy… --Josh |

I'm saddened that the winner failed to meet the traditional standards of the limerick. On the other hand I'm in favor of anything that inspires a limerick contest.

All limericks should have good rhyming and rhythm where necessary. Nothing new there. If the contest was to write a limerick related to magic and you were not sure how to write a good limerick, google is your friend. Here is one for example: http://www.wikihow.com/Write-a-Limerick Absolutely certain there was no reason. Can't believe anyone would be suspicious.

Just in case anyone failed to notice I was kidding about the traditional limerick statement. Man...gotta lead some people down the trail I guess...

Too late for the prize but not for this one
I took a trip to Abracadabra supposed to lead me to cornucopia. I purchased a strange hat from a skilled acrobat, and the matt hat had a strange persona. So I decided to teach that new friend; and he learned playing games of pretend. If you are ever blue or have little to do; Watch my hat, he’ll please you without end.
