LIMERICK 75

Michael Edwards

 

 

There’s a man who lives in St Ives

Who it’s said has married eight wives

With one for each day

Of the week so they say

Plus a spare in case one of them dies.

    Haha, the St Ives Man is more likely to die first, although in quite happy circumstances!

        I've got a pair of them - they hang in my conservatory - might paint a few more as they are always popular - thanks Andy.

        LOL love that limerick


        One wife ran away headed north
        you guessed it, the spare one of course
        she was lonely at night
        but has met Mr Right
        in a place she calls home Perranporth

        well they can afford it, up
        in those high clouds
        funny,
        that's the dream, sold
        to those
        blowing themselves-up
        as well;
        in my eyes, both
        equal threat, terrorist's
        to that civil, way
        of life
        so many die, trying
        to preserve...

        Theres was an old women from France
        Who hopped a train by chance
        The ingineer f%*#ed her
        So did the conductor
        And the breakman ran away with her pants😂 You probably know this one,I learned it from my mom years ago,so it's been around a long time,but I hadn't thought about it in years. Thanks for bringing back good memories Michael,and kudos to you for another laugh😀✌🕊
