The Luck of the Irish – Limerick Love Second Time Around

Last year on Associated Content there was a competition for writers to publish Limericks for Saint Patrick’s Day.

A wonderful competition it was too, and I read many fine poems, yet being new to Associated Content myself, many of my poems received very little traffic, which was disheartening.

Article Summary 21st February 2010

This is a list of articles that I have written on Associated Content in the last week. If you enjoy Poetry, Photography and other written works, I hope you will take a look at what I have published:

Monday Morning Headache – a poem
Cultural Differences Between The UK And The USA – more than you might imagine
Time Is Ticking By – a poem
Who Will Read My Poems? – a poem
My Saint Patrick’s Day Plan – an idea which led to the creating of my Limericks For Saint Patrick’s Day lens on Squidoo
March Seventeen Madness – a poem for Saint Patrick’s Day
The Rainbows End – a Limericks for Saint Patrick’s Day
Saint Patrick’s Day Parade – another Limerick for Saint Patrick’s Day
Crocuses In Bloom – a slideshow of Spring Flowers from our garden

Why so many articles on Saint Patrick’s Day you might ask? It’s a popular topic, and I enjoy writing humorous verse and Limericks, and in the last week these just began to flow off my tongue, so with Saint Patrick’s Day coming up on the 17th March I hope to receive a lot of visitors to my writings.

I also found so many other great Limericks and Poems about Saint Patrick’s Day on Associated Content, that I decided to create a lens on Squidoo about these to give them all a bit more exposure.

If you enjoy my writings, poetry and photographs, why not register with Associated Content, and then you can get an email every time I publish something.

Thanks

Turning My Hand To Poetry

I started to write on a site called Associated Content several weeks ago, a site where a lot of authors write anything from product reviews to poetry and short stories. Having posted a number of articles, I started reading some of the poetry, and having on occasion felt the urge to turn my thoughts into something that rhymes, I decided to try and write on a daily basis.

My mind is known to wander – frequently, and therefore you will find me writing about lots of different topics, but since my mind is emptier during my drive to work, some of these originated while driving.

I hope you enjoy them. If so, please leave a comment you let me know what you think…

If you have an account with Twitter, Facebook or any of the other Social Networking sites, please can you help by sharing this with your friends – if you like the poems of course.

Any suggestions for new poems would also be really appreciated, just leave me a comment and I will see what I can come up with.
