There was an old woman from Hull
In her garden she kept a big bull
He's an Aberdeen Angus and gorgeous
His dangly bits are really enormous
His coat used fifty kilos of wool!

My son has just bought a new puppy

I should have known better it seems
Than to think I could follow my dreams
Life played a part so did fate
What comes next I await,
Hopefully better than some of life's schemes.

What a cold and rainy Easter so far

What a cold and rainy Easter so far
Though I hear it’s quite hot in Qatar

What a cold and rainy Easter so far
Though I hear it’s quite hot in Qatar
But I'm in damp chilly Brum
So I'm feeling quite glum

What a cold and rainy Easter so far
Though I hear it’s quite hot in Qatar
But I'm in damp chilly Brum
So I'm feeling quite glum
But soon the sun will shine, Hurrah!

There's snow on the way again

There's snow on the way again
What words will come from my pen?

There's snow on the way again
What words will come from my pen?
As I scribble and scrabble

There's snow on the way again
What words will come from my pen?
As I scribble and scrabble
And with poetry, dabble

There's snow on the way again
What words will come from my pen?
As I scribble and scrabble
And with poetry, dabble
More snow will annoy my red hen.

It's Easter Sunday today
The Lord has shown us the way

It's Easter Sunday today
The Lord has shown us the way
So we sit in around and vegetate
Whilst eating chocolate eggs

Now I'm one of those dieting bores?

Rachel711 Sun 01-Apr-18 21:03:29

6 weeks later I'm certainly thinner

Jangran99 Sun 01-Apr-18 23:02:09

Marydoll, did you once find a great aid to writing a traditional limerick?confused

Marydoll Sun 01-Apr-18 23:10:40

I think we have all over indulged today?

Bellanonna Sun 01-Apr-18 23:12:45

???

Marydoll Sun 01-Apr-18 23:27:28

A limerick is a poetic form comprised of one stanza with five lines and a rhyme scheme of AABBA that usually is humorous.
The first two lines rhyme, the third and fourth rhyme and the last rhymes with the first.
I think?

It's Easter Sunday today
The Lord has shown us the way
So we sit in around and vegetate
Too many eggs have I ate pedants, please excuse me

Jangran99 Sun 01-Apr-18 23:34:37

Thanks Marydoll.Shall we have another try?

I think I should get off to bed now,

It's Easter Sunday today
The Lord has shown us the way
So we sit a round and vegetate
Whilst eating chocolate eggs
Lets sing hymns instead and pray!!

The sky looked grey and cloudy

The sky looked grey and cloudy
No worries, as I'm off to Saudi sunshine

The sky looked grey and cloudy
No worries, as I'm off to Saudi
I've packed a burkini
