You did well
Cleaned it up
usurped the slime
bounded along
and your math is
flawlessly floor less.
now I know I'm a scurryfunge expert.
amazing how a man can do a 2 hour job in 5 mis. :-))Z.

LOL Z. Thanks for the fun comments. Craig
Comment from Debbie Pope
I love your monolimerick. This poem deserves a six star for all the algebra work that you put into it. You have just gone down in FanStory history with your invention. Others will be trying this, but I see this as your area of expertise. No-one has mastered rhymes like you, Craig.
I really like the word scurryfunge. That's how I clean my house. I scurry to throw things into closets for later retrieval. Then I forget where I threw them. Eventually they start to grow fungus.

I'm going to be majorly disappointed if this doesn't earn me the Nobel Prize in mathematics ;-)
I see we learned house cleaning at the same school, Debbie.
Many thanks for the wonderful comments and rating.

What a bizarre word---and you did great with the rhyming! Fine presentaiton too. Good limerick style. Good consonance of F. The reverse syntax works fine and does not sound too forced. This is a fun one!

Our house is quite close to the front fence, and we live on a dirt road, so I appreciate the dust problem, Dolly. Many thanks, Craig

CDR, this is a fun little limerick using mono rhyme.
A clever and descriptive piece on cleaning the house in a hurry.
Inviting people over seems to be the only way the house gets a scurryfunge :-)
Thanks for the entertaining read. ~DD

Craig, you have written a very clever and witty limerick. Too cute. It is amazing that there are so many nonsense words out there. You did a good job presenting this one.

Thanks so much, Melissa. Writing about cleaning is so much easier than actually doing it ;-) Cheers, Craig

Lovely poem with the simplicity with a scurryfunge reference to the used rhyming there. Interesting algebra, cannot be challenged. Ready to clean the house.

When you're finished, can you clean mine too, please? Many thanks for the lovely comments. Craig
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written Limerick. That is exactly what my daughter and I will be doing for the next few days, cleaning properly, no more scurryfunge, scrubbing the coaches and she is washing the carpets.

We've had our big clean-up, fortunately... now it's just a matter of trying to keep it in reasonable order for a while. Many thanks, Sandra.

Thanks very much for the kind assessment. I share your dislike of cleaning. One of life's necessary evils. Cheers, Craig
