There once was a man from Peru

There once was a man from Peru
Who was feeling awfully blue
He so easily said
He'd switch back to red
Or even a yellow mood too


Explication:

This is a limerick that I wrote about a man who is feeling bad and, through colour, seeks a way to make himself feel better. The humour is aimed toward taking a more literal meaning from the phrase "feeling blue" and using it to my advantage as it relates to my theme. I enjoyed making this limerick because the only big challenge was to make the rhythm fit to the appropriate template.
