I love your idea of a limerick. I usually find them crass. I see no need for that. You refresh that conviction for me. I like your use of onomatopoeia. It is fun. You can really hear the snare drum or a piliated woodpecker or a dolphin. You invite the reader to do more research on the dolphin. This is a nice tribute using personification for this curious creature of the deep. I admire anyone who can write a decent limerick and you have accomplished this.

    Oh, I'm so glad you enjoyed my 'Ambassadorial' write here, Liz.... you know, I had written a double limerick (where he had a girlfriend) and had to re-do it... I saved the other one just in case... :) ;) LOL! thanx for your wonderful comments and most especially for stopping by ... looking forward to Bea's next adventure! ;) :) Yvette

This is fun verse and a funny illustration.

Your dolphin diplomat has excellent credentials for outwitting those wharf rats (in our current climate, you might substitute 'politician' LOL).

Good luck in your contest. You undoubtedly will get many votes.

author this is so cute and charming. The ending superb! What a fun write. I have tried my hand at limericks and it is not very accomplished. Loved it and best wishes with the contest...

This was a good read. It had a good flow to it and was fun. I think the whole family would enjoy it. I think the characters should be brought back in a story. Nice job.

Good evening, Yvette

A nice pair of limericks you have written here.

The Baldwin family of mammals are most certainly the cleverest creatures to bless the oceans, along with, of course, the beautiful octopus.

I guess that Baldwin's best mates, keep a clear distance from his girlfriend, Kenya...

kind regards
