The Philosophical Skunk — A Limerick

A Limerick

There was once a philosophical skunk

Who went off to become a monk.

He said he turned ascetic

Coz’ life was too frenetic

And his friends all said that he stunk.

This limerick was inspired by Krystal Mossbarger’s poem, The Black and White Bunny. I loved her poem and the story that followed.

My daughter tells me that she has skunks visiting her backyard sometimes. Crazy as it sounds, I’m hoping they’ll show up when I’m there. I’ve never seen a skunk.

Thanks for reading!
