LIMERICKS 19, 20 & 21

Michael Edwards

LIMERICKS 19, 20 & 21.

 

 

Said a worker from Bonn:

‘This job’s a big con,

don’t you know

it’s all go,

and I wish I was gone’

 

 

 

There was an old man from Korea

whose daughter complained of diarrhea.

He said ‘I know why

and I’ll tell you no lie,

it runs in the family my dear’

 

 

 

 

An old metal worker from Pudsey

smelt remarkably smelly and musty,

so he had a good scrub

in a large bathing tub

and now he is going quite rusty.

        Thanks Robert - it means a lot to know my humour isn't lost - haven't written any limericks for quite a while - these are all from the 'back catalogue' - must get back into the habit of writing them.

            First- I love the colors in your artwork.
            2nd - # 21 gets my vote. The rusted old metalworker, they should have just oiled him up. thanks for the bit of humor. - Phil A.
