Four Forgettable Limericks
4 May, 2008
Author: Puppet
Here is a bottle of gin
I pour it all into a tin
As I drink it away
I pause just to say
It’s too bad that drinking’s a sin.
There was once a lion from Spain
Who was always licking his mane
On his hair landed a bee
Which he didn’t see
And he licked it and roared with pain.
I tried to come up with a rhyme,
However it took too much time:
I began to get lazy
And my memory grew hazy
So much that I forgot the first line.
There once was a man from Nantucket
Who liked to shit in a bucket
He knocked it over and fell
Then died from the smell
But his widow, she learned to love it.

Bipedalguy (65.96.237.196) -- Thursday, September 4 2008, 01:38 pm These are outstanding.(Like your other writes) Nantucket seems to be a great place to use for a key word in a Limerick. I've sailed to that island many times. It's a nice destination. Keep writing. -Bipe |
