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

The clouds on high are fluffy and white
The chances of rain are quite slight
So I'm sitting outside
Reading Jekyll and Hyde,

There was a sky-diver called Mavis
Betrothed to young chap named Davis
Together they jumped
they both got a bump!
And decided never again, on that basis!!!

There was a young lady called Grace
Who loved chips and well-battered plaice,
Her hips screamed in protest
She looked so grotesque
But she did have a beautiful face!

The birds and the plants know it's Spring,
And, oh, what joy they both bring,
The birds are all nesting
The flowers have stopped resting
And my body is feeling a Zing!!!!

And, oh, what joy they both bring,
The birds are all nesting
The flowers have stopped resting
It's nature's great yearly offering.

Limerick formula still lost as all lines rhyme nowgrin Let's try again!

Yes it has, Bellanonna. Can we get it back without offending anyone?
Sorry, travelsafar , do you mind if I go back? - as the third and fourth lines are meant to be short.

It’s lost its Limerick form....

Bellanonna Thu 22-Mar-18 08:21:11

The birds and the plants know it's Spring,
And, oh, what joy they both bring,
Hustle and bustle as birds build their nests
Humans can joyfully get rid of their vests

There was a young man on a plane
Who was driving the flight crew insane
He sang and he swore
Then he opened the door
No-one cared - he'd been such a pain.

Young Molly was looking for love
So she billed and cooed like a dove
While posing so prettily
A fit lad said wittily
Your love fits me like a glove!!!
