Today I am presenting another poem that will be appearing in my new book “Until Eyes Hear Sound”. The ‘Limerick’ is also a relatively new poem format for me, and “Who Has the Foggiest” is a poem I wrote in May 2022, and it will be the opening piece in the ‘Other’ section of Chapter 10. Short Poems: Haiku, Senryu, Tanka, and Others


Who Has the Foggiest? (a Limerick)
I could not see the morning moon
There’s no sunshine in my breakfast spoon
The heaviest of fogs falls
I cannot hear the birds calls
Has our world condemned nature’s tune

A powerful, heart-touching write, Ivor. And that song/vid is a brilliant pairing for your poem.
Looks like a foggy-weather day…and sometimes we feel the “fog” reaches our hearts.

Thank you for your kind words Carolyn … I don’t do many Limericks and this one just snuck into my book … and Natalie’s rendition of her song at the Blind Instatute, seemed appropriate for my Haiku 🤗💛💛🐶
