Limerick R12 Police Comments

It is right to respect policemen, not give them an insulting nickname. Even the word 'cops' is doubtful even though it is commonly used in newspapers. Well written.

Interesting words on behalf of the police....thanks for sharing this poem here friend

Brought a bit of fun to a dreary day. Thanks for sharing

Here in Pakistan, too, policemen are called Thulla, we forget that they are from us. Enjoyed this limerick as I very well understood the line They are not the descendants of Count Dracula.

very much amusing. It is really enjoyable...10

We all need respect on earth. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.

yes, i can now understand why the Indian police would not appreciate being called Thulla! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Wikipedia Thulla Thulla, born September 6,1968 in Copenhagen, is a Danish Pop and Jazz singer.

NOW i read the poet's note. THANKS. bri :) and i just read Valsa's (a good PH friend to me) and see the reference to Count D is based on the old concept; i don't know if anyone in the u.s. thinks that about police here, but in the 70s (1970s) some protesters etc. called the police PIGS!

Hey! Hey! Rajnish I have found your limerick... good one..... Using Thulla is apparently a grimmer trick

Another interesting limerick! Thank God.... that old concept of the police as descendants of Dracula is changing! Yes, we should learn to respect the individuality and nobility of everyone and stop making sweeping condemnations!

So amusing and enjoyable. A nice limerick I like most. TFS. ... 10
