| is for Gorgonzola and Gorgon |
The difference between Gorgonzola and Gorgon
could turn you into stone with her
sense organ;
no matter what the jig,
she can’t take a wig,
not sure if she will tolerate a
turban.
Whatever you do, don’t look her in
the eye!
If there’s a salon job near, don’t
apply!
Gorgonzola’s just cupcakes,
to dressing a head of snakes,
the cheese is strong, but it doesn’t
petrify!
G is also for Great and Gorgeous and Ginormous : The first week of the ChallenGe has now Gone by, and I have come across some Gorgeous posts and Great bloGs, sumptuously illustrated, beautifully written, informative, entertaininG, movinG, funny, feel-Good, useful, sometimes based on facts, at others wholly fictitious. The Ginormous amounts of work bloGGers put in to perfect their posts never fails to blow my mind. Just plain amazinG and Glorious to read.

This limerick is yet another Generous Gift, which fills me with Gratitude (and Giggles). Thank you.
ReplyDeleteGlad and Grateful you Grace this blog. Extra Glad about the Giggles. Giggles are Good! To have and to Give. :) thanks EC for being here.
DeleteGood job on this thank you for sharing
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting.
DeleteGorgons and Gorgonzola! Two great words to choose from. And your limerick was entertaining, as always. Great Going!
ReplyDeleteHard choosing between the two :) Thanks for visiting
DeleteNow that is a perfect combination. I'll take my gorgon straight with a side of gorgonzola, please!
ReplyDeleteUm, I think I'll pass. Both the Gorgon and Gorgonzola :)
DeleteIt would take Limburger cheese to petrify.
ReplyDeleteNice combination of G words!
Thanks for the warning! I'll steer clear of Limburger then...
DeleteTruly great job! I agree, beginning with your blog its amazing the entries that are out there. I hope I can stop by most of them but to comment on each one - no way. Mores the pity. You're rocking this challenge, Nila, congratulations!
ReplyDeleteCan't comment on everyone, agree with you there. Especially Blogger is making it unnecessarily time consuming, rolling out the pic verification at random days and times, sometimes with more than one set of thumbnails on the loop. Aargh! after a time I just Give up trying. Neither have the patience nor the time.
DeleteThanks for being here and the Generous support.
Fun play on words!

DeleteRemind me to avoid the Gorgons, but Gorgnozola, I'll have any time. :)
ReplyDeleteDone! Keeping your Gorgonzola aside for you. I'll Get rid of the Gorgons as soon as I figure out how :)
DeleteAnd now I'm hungry for cheese! :)
ReplyDeleteRemember not to ask for Gorgons by mistake! :)
DeleteReally enjoying your Gs. :)

Glad you enjoyed the G's though only one here that is enjoyable, the other is to be avoided :)
DeleteThank you for the information. It's very good to know. I most definitely will not look her in the eye. Lovely in poetry form. Thanks for stopping by my blog.

DeleteFun "G" post. I like the gorgon...can't say I've ever given them much thought. Liked how you spun a rhyming tale.
ReplyDeleteThe Gorgons are formidable...in awe of you now :) thanks for coming over
DeleteGosh you are good! Yes I'll avoid that Gorgon and come to think of it I have never tasted Gorgonzola!
ReplyDeleteCheers :)

Gorgonzola is an Italian cheese I think, was served it once as a child by a German lady. Those were times when there was no question of refusing anything served by a Grown up, so had to finish it. Well, I did, but nearly choked!! :)
DeleteThough on second thought, I should try it again now and I'll probably find it to my taste, who knows? Food tastes, like others, mature with age.
Glad that it did. Thanks for coming over.
ReplyDeletegiggles galore at your ginormous effort. Excellent first week
ReplyDeleteYup, a good week definitely..but then the first is usually the best :)
DeleteJ here, stopping by from the #atozchallenge - where I am part of Arlee Bird's A to Z Ambassador Team.

DeleteVery informative. I truly learned something to day! I have never had either. But I do love cheese!
ReplyDeleteGorgons would be truly terrible to have! :)

DeleteYour poetry always brings a smile to my face :)
ReplyDeleteI never realized the danger of confusing these two items. From now on, I will only approach the cheese aisle in the supermarket by walking backward and looking over my shoulder in a mirror. Thank you for finally clearing up the mystery of all those stone statues caught in the act of reaching for cheese!
ReplyDeleteHaha! Always so funny and entertaining... Learned a new word today too (Gorgon).
ReplyDeleteJoy @ The Joyous Living
I read up a bit on 'Gorgon' after your post. Your verses are very educational, whether you like it or not! :)
ReplyDeleteGoodness Gracious to think that I didnt know all that - took the help of Google to ensure you werent just pulling my leg :P
ReplyDeleteGood going :)
