Tawny Emperor Butterfly
These butterflies love to eat rotting fruit. I have pears that they are enjoying. And here is the underside of the Tawny Emperor Butterfly! They say they’re very jumpy, so it’s hard to get close and take pictures, but it was cool out when the one was resting on my brick work. The other above might have been feasting on the fermenting pears and drunk.

And here I’m sharing all these butterfly pictures on Facebook, while I’m trying to identify them, and a friend saw this in the news about Monarch butterflies on the weather radar. Coincidence or something else? Too cool!

They've got the wrong age listed though. It's a young adult book, suitable from 12-adult so my publisher will have to have that changed. :)

First, that is not a typo. Nash titled these little things Limicks and without finding any hard documentation I believe these were his invention, an abbreviation of a short-form Limerick: short one line, each line short three syllables of a traditional Limerick. I read once (or did I dream it) that some have confused the Limick with a Clerihew but (nerd alert) The Limick's rhyme structure is

This book is just screaming for that kind of attention.

I have the "Giant Cardinal edition" from 1962. It was my dad's, and I read it as a child, and somehow managed to sneak it out of the house when I went to college. A blogger named E. Filetraveled many an e-mileresearching his pithy post about Nash.His pay? A comment. Better or worse than cash?
I'm glad I stopped infor t'would have been a sinto have missed all this funamidst poetic kin.
I never knew about limicks. Pigericks, yes. Entirely different. Thanks!

I just realized I wrote a clerihew instead of a limick. I blame it on the party going on over at my blog. Can I change that last line to: His pay? A comment (from a clueless poet) and a e-smile. ;)
Sara, I was so tickled you took up the charge I didn't even notice! You can blame the party, but what's my excuse? I'll take the e-smile, however, thank you.Thanks, John and Karen, for your poems as well.Susan: for the clueless out there (perhaps only me) what's a Pigerick?
David,I'm busy preparing for a trip today--otherwise I'd attempt a limick. Maybe I'll write some limicks while I'm up in--or should I say down Maine?
