With broken hand, a man was screaming
As loud and shrill as a pig squealing
Said a man from behind
"You only broke your hand

You only broke your hand He lost his head and still not shrieking - ha ha ha! So hilarious! The one who lost his head may not have any senses left, while the one with the broken hand feels the pain, and hence the squealing.
If you permit, I would call it an accidental limerick because the scene develops over an accident. It seems unlikely to squeeze humour out of an innocuous looking situation but this poem does exactly that and I had a hearty laugh. Enjoyed reading this lovely poem. Thanks, Valsa ji.
This is hilarious. However, I am glad that people who lose their heads do not make any noise. Our ears, otherwise have a really difficult time... A wonderful limerick ma'am. Thanks for sharing: -)
Quite true! If the headless also begin to scream, how horrible it would have been! Glad you find this hilarious! How I wish I could read your poems side by side with your comments! Thanks a lot for visiting my page!
A powerful perspective that motivates and inspires. Yes Valsa there is always something or someone worst and that reality should always motivate us to keep on going and growing. Well done my friend!
A very funny macabre limerick. Some people don't know when they well off. Great write, Valsa
Kim Barney writes. Then there was Valsa George; I spoke to her with ease. (Does she know her name means 'Waltz' in Portuguese?) I wish her a joyful Waltz with her spouse.
Missing Valsa George for last thirteen days. May she be enjoying a pleasure trip in Goa, or an spiritual trip at Jerusalem.
You are right Akhtar ji! It is days since I could log on to poem hunter! I was away from home for almost two weeks. My brother and sister from US have come on a short vacation. We were travelling from place to place. I have to catch up with so much on poem hunter! Thank you friend!
An enjoyable Limerick, Valsa ! You only broke your hand He lost his head and still not shrieking It is when you compare, you know the difference! A full 10 for the lovely Limerick
A pin is more painful than a lost head indeed...ha ha ha.
This accident Limerick is really very amazing and fun giving. There is no need to scream with a broken hand. When head is not there a man cannot move. This poem is very humorous in expression...10
You only broke your hand, the pig squeals in mans voice and rightly so, a very clever poem my friend and is played in real life by those without pain from a distance
The broken head is more serious and not fit to be a fun....so the broken hand and its loud screaming only is fit to be a serious fun....joking Valsa...your usual lovable write- 10
