A old man from the city of Cork
Tried eating his soup with a fork
He made such a mess

A knight needs to polish his breastplate
In order to find a soulmate

grin, grin
I'm off to have my lunch!

I only buy blouses with sleeves
To protect my elbows from thieves.
They don't want them I know
And they are only for show
But I tuck the ends into my greaves

I only buy blouses with sleeves
To protect my elbows from thieves.
They don't want them I know
And they are only for show
So just forget about them please.

I only buy blouses with sleeves
To protect my elbows from thieves
When the lags are about

There was an old man with a cold
A revolting sight to behold
My heart really grieves
At the sight of his sleeves
That were covered in snot, I am told.

This is so funnygrin
A Limerick has five lines, the first, second and last must rhyme.

Tam came from John o groats
Exceptionally proud of his kilt
But when the wind was swirling strong
Causing an embarrassing flurry
Which made him run off in a hurry.

Sorry best ending I could think of

The weather today will be sunny
Enough for a picnic with honey
But watch out for bears
Playing musical chairs
And thinking it exceedingly funny

CherryHatrick Sun 29-Oct-17 11:08:28

I once used to run for the bus
But now I can't do with the fuss
My knees give me gip
There's a pain in my hip
And the elastic has gone on my truss.

Finish the other one then it is your turn to start one trisher
