Hey Daniel,
Double entendre and puns to boot all wrapped up nicely in a Senryu. You have outdone yourself with this one. Thanks for the chuckle about a real possibility. Larry ······· ·······When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

Wow, Daniel, you've summed up the Brexit problem in three amusing lines! Send it to The Guardian UK, maybe they'll publish it! Mmm, too late. What a worrisome situation D. Cameron has got the Brits into. I know referendums are a democratic way to allow the people to chose, but nobody really seems to understand or even guess what will happen after, if it's Brexit. Not even the banks or the E.U. itself appear to know whom it suits best. I expect it will help the usual 1%, meaning the powerful, rich groups. I've been following you and Larry in the Limerick thread. No time to comment, bedtime now! Syl  ······· ·······Mis temas favoritos
The Lord replied, my precious, precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you.
