I have this friend Eddie

I have a friend who I went to kindergarten through 10th grade with named Eddie.  I probably haven't seen him in 20 years ago but last year he issued a challenge on Facebook.  Not a frequenter of The Facebook it took me a few days to see the challenge.
He started a limerick rant that went on for days.  I will try to find a few excerpts from that last exchange.  But here is what I posted...

A challenge from a dear old friend

Write a limerick about me and send

To Facebook I’ll post

And hope for the most

Comments right after the end

She’s obsessed with the periodic table

From memory, the chart she can label

With glee she’ll recite

Which elements ignite

And which ones are really unstable

She is also smitten with fonts

The choices, so many, it haunts

From gothic to glyphs

Through thousands she sifts

For just the right one that she wants

But her favorite thing is to sail

In the sun with a bottle of ale

For summer she wishes

While she does the dishes

In winter which moves like a snail

For now I think I should cease

For my brain is starting to crease

From left brain to right

The transition is tight

With time running out on my lease

And today it started again.  So I will post later about the exchange we are having currently.  What fun!
