Dear me, yet ANOTHER bunch of limericks. I'm getting addicted to this gentle genre. |
WITH FRIENDS LIKE THIS … "This hairstyle is simply not right. I really do feel such a sight." "Oh nonsense, my dear you’ve nothing to fear I’ll make sure they turn out the light.." ENTRY FOR POND POETRY ROUND 48 In summer we play in the sun Lots of games and there’s plenty of fun We’ve been having a ball But we’ve just gone through fall. In Australia, winter’s begun. THE NIGHT SKY Our fault’s in ourselves, not our stars. Don’t blame it on Venus and Mars. They’re planets, you fool. Where did you go to school? Has your brain been locked up behind bars? BAGPIPES I’ve been playing the bagpipes for years, and driven the neighbours to tears. They’ve begged and they’ve pleaded ‘til at last I conceded that I’d buy great big muffs for their ears. REACTION "Becoming a monk isn’t cool. No women or booze, that’s the rule." "I know, Dad, I know But I do love her so and she’s making me feel such a fool." PLUMBING There’s a very bad smell from the drain. I don’t think it’s due to the rain It needs a good flush not just with a brush. One more time, try explosives again. DEATH AND TAXES There’s only two sure things today. Death and taxes – we all have to pay Excepting my mother, the Queen and one other who that is, I’m not going to say. INSULTS "Now good little boys and girls care You really must learn how to share." "Oh give it a rest. My daddy knows best He says you’re a dingbat, so there." |
