He loaded up his clapped out old tractor
while rehearsing his song for X Factor!!!
Too ambitious by far

A bored farmers lad from the country
Loved Bogart, so called himself Humphrey
Of Casablanca he dreamed
As the horse manure steamed,
And of some way that he could become free.

My ma had a small blue pet pig
For truffles she'd use him to dig
She's a millionaire now
The family said WOW
How rich we will be when he's BIG!

But her sister did better by far,
By taking advice from her Pa,
He said, make your own dough,
But don`t tell our Joe,
Or he'll spend all his cash in the bar

There was once a young woman from Ayr
Who was wed to an old millionaire
The cash they did splash
Before it went out of fash
And they discovered the cupboard was bare

Or perhaps I should now learn to fly
Before the chance passes you by
I'll fly like a bird
Like an eagle I've heard
'fraid I'll land with a bump and a sigh!

Sorry Rufus2, that's not a limerick. But the words are familiar, - The Lost Chord?")
Henetha; Sorry about that. I'd forgotten the rules and thought the name of this game was for someone to start off with a line and then others followed, adding further lines. Silly me! sad You want things like "There was a young lady from Ealing,..." Morecambe and Wise were good at that, when they were allowed. grin.

Seated one day at my 'puter
I was weary and ill at ease

Bellanonna Mon 06-May-19 09:10:04

So I think I'll take up sky jumping
So fit now from body pumping
Although I'm scared of heights
Let alone the flights
If I do it I shall achieve something!
