Write a Limerick, Win a Diamond…
From the guys over at the Mervis Diamonds Blog, you can now win a diamond for writing a limerick:
Tell us your stories of love, dating, and diamonds in the District and you can win a diamond pendant! Did you meet your true love under the cherry blossoms? Did she say yes right after a spending bill passed? Was the ring presented at Ben’s on a half-smoke with everything?
The best limerick wins a $500 diamond pendant! The winning entry will be funny, clever, romantic and include the flavor of DC.
May I humbly present my entry?
There once was a fella named Mervis
Who hocks the stones most imperv’ous
He sold me a rock
and a ring from his stock
and now we’re engag’d and pretty nervous!
Not bad for a first attempt, I guess. Okay, yeah it sucks. Sorry.

Hmm… How do you rhyme diamond with Nantucket?
