LIMERICKS 4 5 & 6
An aspiring young jockey called Morse
was longing to ride round the course
‘How can it be done?’
he asked his bright son.
‘On a long-tailed, long legged, well bred, black Arabian horse, of course!’
There was an old man called Rose
who wore a large peg on his nose.
Whenever asked ‘Why?’
He would always reply:
‘It’s convenient for hanging out clothes’.
There was a young man from Eccles
who was covered all over in freckles.
Said the King to the Queen
‘Tis a thing seldom seen,
except in the streets around Eccles’.

Wonderful limericks! I echo in what Kathy said in that you do have a way with words! Nice abstract! Work of art!
Very entertaining!
Thank you - pleased to raise a smile.
ha ha :0) oh my gosh i have to tell the last one to my husband. his middle name is eccles and his business partner calls him eccles. thanks for creating smiles and i adore the painting!
What a coincidence - by the way have you ever heard of the Goon Show? Not sure if it was popular in the States - if not just google \'Goon Show, Eccles\'
haven't heard of it so ok i'll google it :0)
It was a completely mad show featuring Peter Sellers among others and I was an addict in the late 1950s
oh my i adored peter & the pink panther!!!
