Limericks

Haha *snorts* Gasp. Wow! *chokes on apple that she’s eating* cough, cough. Oh my goodness. You guys are so creative. I’m terrible at limericks. And I used to have to write them all the time for my school work. 😀

Once upon a time there was a tinker,
Everyone called him quite the thinker,
He thought without pausing,
Til his smell was appalling,
Now everyone calls him quite the stinker.

I was out for a walk with my dog.
But we got lost in the fog.
Oh what should I do?
I was feeling so blue.
So I just sat down on a log.

@bluejay, Haha, I like it! You’re not terrible at limericks at all. 🙂

You guys are ALL very creative! Wow— who knew this forum was full of poetic geniuses! 😉

@Gretald, I would just switch up the syllables a bit in your limerick, though it does fit the form. Yours was

There was a girl called Connie,
Whose sister’s name was Bonnie,
She was so wee,
That she will be,
Always with their Mommy.

Try:

There once was a girl named Connie,
Who had a small sister named Bonnie.
This girl was so wee
That she’ll always be
Forever, for always, with Mommy.

That’s really cute, by the way— I have a few siblings like that. 😉

@kate-flournoy, Ooo! I like it. By the way, you don’t have to ask about giving me feedback. Feedback helps me grow as a writer, and I’m always looking for people who are willing to give it. 🙂

Well hey, that’s good to know @gretald! That’s how I am too— but I just wanted to make sure I didn’t offend anyone who maybe didn’t feel that way. 😉

*clears throat importantly, glares around with red pen poised quivering in clenched fingers* Next?

There once was a garbageman fair
Who had sparkling teeth and blond hair
He never quite knew
Why young ladies said “Eeew”
And the ones that really liked him were rare.

Oh boy that made me laugh @writefury! Poor guy… 😀 😛 😉

There once was a lizard called Ted.
Who lived in an old tin shed.
His head was dark blue,
And his tail was too,
But he wished that they had been red.
