Limerick thread

[Like a Fox]

There was a child who could never rhyme
he wrote poems that clunked and maligned
he cried with a fright
when, to his delight



(yep he's frightened and delighted)

There was a child who could never rhyme
he wrote poems that clunked and maligned
he cried with a fright
when, to his delight
rhythmic meter caught him from behind

Haha forget it.

oh my.

When I eat sour pickles, I pucker

[Chester's Daughter]

When I eat sour pickles, I pucker
unlike my beau, the burly trucker

[Like a Fox]

When I eat sour pickles, I pucker
unlike my beau, the burly trucker
He chomps 'em up good

[Baron]

When I eat sour pickles, I pucker
unlike my beau, the burly trucker
he likes his frankfurter

[Chester's Daughter]

When I eat sour pickles, I pucker
unlike my beau, the burly trucker
he likes his frankfurter
tended by a sheep herder (not a word about the extra syllable, that's an almost impossible rhyme)

[apple]

When I eat sour pickles, I pucker
unlike my beau, the burly trucker
he likes his frankfurter
but yells bloody murder

[caelum]

When I eat sour pickles, I pucker
unlike my beau, the burly trucker
he likes his frankfurter
but yells bloody murder
When they serve him too few at Fuddruckers

[caelum]

I whipped this up in a fit of boredom. Feeling kind of Halloweeny. . .

Headless, I ride vacant roads
This night your neck-up is owed
You round a bend
My blade extends
One more head unto my load

[Chester's Daughter]

I liked that, cae, nice job.


The lovers of puppies and flowers
today shirk from the awesome powers
that the dark like me
dispense easily
cowards, beware the witching hour

[Olly Buckle]

This got missed in a double post.

There was once a sad little gnome
who got crushed by a passing man's tome
Though, he did not die
(Don't ask me why)

There was once a sad little gnome
who got crushed by a passing man's tome
Though, he did not die
(Don't ask me why)
he learned he should stick close to home

[Gumby]

Ghost's and Goblin's crowd 'round my door
their pillowcase stretched out for more
but the treats in my bowl
cannot fill their black hole
crap, I'll have to run to the store
