Hank Zona's limericks shine. In a pinch, they'll likely do fine. But the only real reason They sound at all pleasin' Is you haven't lately heard mine.
For a limerick to have good result It's me you have to consult I'll give you a clue First thing that you do Is decide who you want to insult.
I'll give you another instruction. For limerick's successful construction Be sure that your rhyme Is really sublime And not just a whim or compunction.
Edited to Add: I composed these limericks for another thread but was told "No more limericks!" so I started this thread. Please respond in kind.
Soulful is both sweet and sour. He writes limericks hour after hour. He created a new thread to rise up and be read, But instead it's a place that he'll cower.
The terms of this thread are too binding. It's the person above who I'm minding? This was not said in the "Haiku Thread." I think folks will need constant reminding.
Don't worry and don't get too hot. We won't be too strict in this spot. But not a thread silly. With verse willy-nilly. The "Haiku Thread" this is not.
the soulful one's never been above me though i'm sure that would really be lovely but while it might be so hot daddyrock would say "not!" so i'll settle for him to kiss me and hug me
That hit me in my solar plexus. You and me, we know what great sex is. There'd be no exempting Even though you are tempting. Thank God you moved down to Texas.
There once was a woman named Joan Who called Maplewood, NJ her home broken ankle she tended she sat while she mended posting insights on rebuilding her bone.
Yes, I write them as fast as I can. With no ideas, no goals and no plan Sometimes I get fraught. And it all comes to naught. What rhymes with USMNTFan?
I find I'm intrigued with this thread With all kinds of ideas in my head Mr. T keeps them rolling With no need for cajoling Yet, I eek out one rhyme and I'm dead!
I think a rat I am smelling My argument you'll find compelling You yell "eek" when you're scared So, it's "eke," mon frere. Behind grammar, what's most key is spelling.
who died and made T the English teacher? when in fact he should try to beseech her he wants folks to write then actually causes fright with his spelling correction feature
I agree with Mommyrock's stance And I blush when you look askance Though your point is well taken Indeed I'm mistaken Who the hell likes a smarty-pants!
when a hot woman offers you sexing would you really be so complexing as to criticize her hair not matching "down there" your corrections are similarly vexing
Please excuse my ongoing japes And proceeed to remove your capes. Mommy, I really don't care. If it's stinky down there. Or the carpeting don't match the drapes
Corrections and erections be damned you both need to be taken in hand you're setting expectation bound for deflation given neither of you wants to be banned
It looks like the "high road" awaits As talk of erection abates It may be for the better Though the thread will be deader Unless this rule someone plans to negate
In a pinch, they'll likely do fine.
But the only real reason
They sound at all pleasin'
Is you haven't lately heard mine.
