Carrying on .........
This road sweeper gloomily pushed his barrow
Through the streets, wide or narrow
Keeping an eye out
For treasures ,no doubt ( to keep the shape Granny)
Which he'll grab with the speed of an arrow!

There once was an old man named Fred
whose favourite colour was red

He fancied a flirt with the woman next door

sorry 52bright we each add one line at a time to the limerick and the person who adds the fifth line starts a new one. Yours would be good for a new start eventually

There once was an old man named Fred
whose favourite colour was red
He’d painted his walls

There once was an old man named Fred
whose favourite colour was red
He’d painted his walls
Despite a few falls

There once was an old man named Fred
whose favourite colour was red
He’d painted his walls
Despite a few falls
And even coloured his bed.

Starting with 52bright's earlier line
He fancied a flirt with the woman next door

He fancied a flirt with the woman next door
But sadly she thought him a bit of a bore

He fancied a flirt with the woman next door
But sadly she thought him a bit of a bore
His advances she spurned

Juliet27 Sat 16-May-20 21:38:24

He fancied a flirt with the woman next door
But sadly she thought him a bit of a bore
His advances she spurned
When for her he yearned

He fancied a flirt with the woman next door
But sadly she thought him a bit of a bore
His advances she spurned
When for her he yearned
Cold water on his passion she'd pour!

A pastor on the island of Mull
Whose sermons were terribly dull
Beneath his hassock

A pastor on the island of Mull
Whose sermons were terribly dull
Beneath his cassock
Knelt on his hassock

A pastor on the island of Mull
Whose sermons were terribly dull
Beneath his cassock
Knelt on his hasso
The Congregation were all in a lull

The weather has been fine for a while
The best spring we’ve had by a mile
Nature's profusion

Juliet27 Tue 19-May-20 18:40:45

The weather has been fine for a while
The best spring we’ve had by a mile
Nature's profusion
Birdsong in confusion

The weather has been fine for a while
The best spring we’ve had by a mile
Nature's profusion
Birdsong in confusion
And the ladies dressed up in style.

And sing in the car shouting ahoy!
