Continuing from 9

I was tempted to conjure a spell
Leave the house with a horrible smell

I don't care if I seem to be greedy
Look at that pudding - my eyes are beady
It will go down well
Such an amazing smell

I’ve lent things before and lost them for ever
So I made up my mind that I would never
A borrower or a lender be
My things belong to me
And those bonds I'll not let you sever.

I’ll get the blades sharpened tomorrow
In the meantime perhaps I could borrow
Your secateurs if you please
Or if you so wish, on a lease
But the neighbour said ’fraid not with sorrow.

There was an old man called Reg
Who had trouble trimming his hedge
He only had shears
(Blunted over the years!)
So he made his neighbours this plefge.

I know this is All Hallows Eve
But I can’t bring myself to believe
in witches and ghosts
But I have heard boasts
That Hecate was known as Steve

She started with just gin and tonic
But sadly it soon became chronic
A bottle a day
She’d stagger and sway
And behave in a way quite demonic.

PS: Yes I agree we should at least try to stick to Limerick structure. www.poetry4kids.com/lessons/how-to-write-a-limerick - if you're not sure.....smile

And I'd love a poetry thread as well - any volunteers to start one?
