FURTHER UPROOTED VERSE: More Poems About TREES
SATIRE COMPOSED: Giorgio Coniglio (registered pseudonym) and Dr. GH, May 2019. Most of the verses presented here have been published at OEDILF.com, an online humour dictionary that has accumulated over 100,000 carefully edited limericks.
WORDPLAY LINK: An earlier collection of illustrated poems on this theme was published as a wordplay post, "UPROOTED VERSE: LIMERICKS ABOUT TREES" HERE. These arboreal posts also pick up on themes discussed in the earlier post "Sappy Verse", that has themes related to the Joyce Kilmer poem.
And for more poetry and photos about fabric art, see Giorgio's prior post.
(Note that the three verses of this "brief saga" can be found in more readily legible format on the blog "Daily Illustrated Nonsense"; click HERE.)
