Hi Folks,

I'm new to The Written Word. I have recently self-published a book entitled "Casting Nasturtiums" that takes a humorous look at the English language using rhyming verse. The title piece is:

If you are caught "casting Nasturtiums"
Assume they'll rebound in your face,
For some will be casting aspersions
Directly at you in their place.

There are more samples on the Website which is www.castingnasturtiums.com. I hope some of you find them up your alley.

Ah, you'll fit right in with us. Have you tried limericks or double dactyls or Haikus?

Welcome, and we hope to see more of you. Check your private messages (PMs).

Yes I have written a few limericks, one of which was:

To write limericks is quite an art
But by far the most difficult part
Is to find a third rhyme
To end the last line
That isn't the same as the start.

There's also one on the Apostrophe on my Website. Never heard of double dactyls, they sound like fun.
