Sobre IBD

Love, Life, and Laughter in Limericks is a book of short poems that express insights, wisdoms, and sometimes humor. Each section starts with an explanation of a philosophical view of the author and many of the categorized limericks reflect and expand on those views. The book also has an extra section, toward the end, that contains several types of poetry, including non-limerick poems reflecting unique thoughts and ideas. Many, of the over 600 poems, deliver deep inspirational messages that can be viewed as quite thought stimulating, while others are more proverbial. And there are still others that can produce smiles and an occasional belly laugh with their wit and humor. The book holds many easy to read poems that should provide several hours of enjoyment.

The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

    Edward V Bonner

Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....
