LIMERICKS 6

We're moving stuff for carpet laying
Must get it done, no more delaying
Husband's complaining
The effort’s so draining
Hope worth it for all that we're paying

Now that Limerick rhythm was great!

Today is the longest day here
New Zealand's the shortest I fear
Here it's rainy and cold
Which makes me feel old
Wrap up, keep warm then my dear.

So where in the world would you go
Somewhere where life is so slow
Manana's the cry
Espagna, we'll try
The Seychelles if I had the dough!

Did you ever wish you were elsewhere?
Somewhere in the middle of nowhere?
Yes, I'd like that indeed,
Family, take heed ....
If only I could afford the airfare

Not to spoil the fun, but we need to stick to the few rules surrounding Limerick rhymes....namely:

Lines 1 and 2 have to rhyme
Line 3 does not
Line 4 has to rhyme with line three
Line 5 has to rhyme with Lines 1 and two

Best Limericks are clever and funny and they have both rhythm and cadence. Here's an example of a well known Limerick

There was a young lady from Niger
Who smiled as she rode on a Tiger
They came back from the ride
With the lady inside
and the smile on the face of the tiger!

So here we go again....

Today I am going to the beach
Even if the sun's out of reach
So who needs an umbrella

Today I am going to the beach
Even if the sun`s out of reach
Just for a paddle
Then I`ll skedaddle
And suck on a nice juicy peach

Did you ever wish you were elsewhere?

Oops - how come I missed those. Back to Jan's

Today I am going to the beach
Even if the sun's out of reach
I shall paddle a bit

Today I am going to the beach
Even if the sun's out of reach
Just for a paddle
Then I'll skedaddle

Today I am going to the beach
Even if the sun's out of reach
Just for a paddle
