It's so pleasant to know old man Kim.
There are very few people like him.
If you tell him he's funny,
would he give you some money?

I repeat your two concluding lines: would he give you some money? The chances of that are quite slim. and I have added now with: and Kim has done his utmost best to the brim. Since he was born in a BANK? Amazing Limerick, Kim!
CONGRATS being ranked on number 25 in the Top 100 of The Best Member poems! Thank you for sharing this Limerick, Kim.
Hi Kim, I have declared the results. Please see my ‘poem' "How Pleasant to Know". Thank you.
May I request Rob Lamberton to post his Limerick as a poem on HIS page, so that more of could read it. However, it does not qualify for THIS contest, for it needs to be "Self-Promoting"
There are now four entries. By Kim, Cowboy, Bri and Belle. As Jayne has mentioned that she has shared hers, and I could not find it in her poems, I will wait for another day. I Kim
Let me try again: I once tried to meet old man Kim They say he was gone to the gym Though I didn't meet him Perhaps you could greet him It's important for Kim to stay slim
A well crafted and cleverly executed limerick. Very entertaining as always, Kim. To my fav.
Amazing five liner that rhymes with music. Loved it Kim. Top score + To my favourite
How pleasant to read your poem Kim! . Even without any money, , i would vote for you as the finest fun poet in Poem Hunter.
Limerick is a five-liner poem, with specific rhyme scheme, and more importantly and essentially, humorous! Any more takers?
Did you mean that you had added a self-promoting limerick of your own? If so, I couldn't find it! I love your other poems, though!
Yes Belle x Mine is called How pleasant to know this old girl Jayne x
I could not find your entry for the contest yet, Jayne. Could you please look into? For, Kim has reminded me to give my decision on the winning entry.
my friend---you make hearts happy---may your pen keep busy and fill poemhunter land with joy and friendship
Susan, you make ME happy with your generous and pleasant comments. Thank you!
I'm expected to follow 'the crowd' and write a similar poem about me. Yeah, ME! ! Can you imagine a boasting poem about me being ONLY 5 LINES long? ? ? ! Hardly! ! bri ;)
Oh, Bri, five lines should be more than plenty for you. You have NOTHING to brag about! : ) : ) : )
We all know well that Bri could write a Mahakaavyam boasting about himself. But I will request him not to give a try.
So now we have at least 3 'How Pleasant To Know....' poems on PH: from Belle Wassermeister, Cowboy Ron Williams, AND Kim Barney. Actually, the chances that Kim will part with money are EXTREMELY limited. : )
Bri, Kim gave away hundreds of dollars with his contests a few years ago.
You actually are very funny! ! ! Now... where's my check? !
Ha! Slim chance! Thanks for the comment, Smoky!
