Seven Limericks

Classicmister

 

There once was a man in despair

Because he was losing his hair

So he bought some restorer

Via his website Explorer

Now his scalp is no longer threadbare

 

There once was a lady called Lily

Who rarely did anything silly

But once she jumped up

And upset her tea cup

All over her ball gown so frilly

 

There once was a young man named Harry

Who hoped that one day he’d marry

So he joined a website

That he trawled through  the night

And found a nice girl name of Carrie 

 

A very old man name of Roger

Once rented a room to a lodger

The lodger went broke

 So he fleeced the old bloke

 And became  a serial rent dodger

 

There once was a woman named  Hanna

Who was more than adept with a spanner

With her wrenches and hammer

She restored   an old banger

And drove across state to Montana

 

There once was a man name of Wally

Who walked off with his local store’s trolley

The manager gave chase

But such was his pace

That he never got caught for his folly

 

There once was a man from Devizes

Who tried hats on of various sizes

But some were too small

And others too tall

Now all headgear he truly despises

    There once was a guy called, Paul.
    Who read your limericks and all.
    He fell of his chair.
    Laughing on air.
    Now he's in traction in care.

      Thanks Paul - I hope they will let you home again soon!

      Cheers

    • dusk arising

      Theres no point it letting it linger
      when a limerick wants to slip from your fingers
      even if its not good
      just post it, you should
      for tomorrow you could write a real stinger

      • Classicmister

        Dusk - Thanks for your comment - Look out for my next stringer!

        Cheers

        Keep them going, they're fun. Here's one for you:

        His name is one long Classicmister
        Whose hand grew a very big blister
        He squeezed it so tight
        It popped with a MIGHT
        Starting a tornado and twister!

        The End.

        • Classicmister

          Great limerick Rozina - Thank you - I hope that my tornado has burnt out by now !

          John
