Happy New Week to you all and welcome to Esther Chilton’s regular Monday challenge. We hope that you had a great weekend.
As Esther continues on her road to recovery from her shoulder surgery, I continue to host her limerick challenge. We really enjoy reading your submissions and hope that more people will join in to redouble the fun element. Please feel free to pass on the links to your friends to attract more participants.
Today, Esther’s one-word prompt is POUNCE. So can you write a limerick using the word POUNCE in it somewhere?
You may wish to ignore the prompt and write one of your own. Whatever word or theme comes sparks the poetic fire in your mind is wonderful. Write it here!
Post your submissions in the Comments on this post.

Nice five word story, Peter. It made me laugh.
Four more lines and you’ll have yourself a limerick!

Pinched from the film Cabaret , though I only remembered that after I’d written it !!

Team Coach, Alf, sure is a headache,
He will pounce on every mistake,
And once in a while
He adds one more mile
To ensure we are still awake!

I’m a headstrong young stallion called Bouncer.
My mistress calls me “Incredible Pouncer.”
Her heart loudly thumps
As she rides me at jumps.
We’d even shock most sports announcers.

There was a young lady from Tring
Who enjoyed the occasional fling.
Her assets she’d flounce
With phenomenal bounce.
She’d rebound as if coiled like a spring.

When a lady is keen , pounce -When she’s not , bounce – While she may show out – There can be no doubt – The lady is not for turning !!
