Some of the limericks on the Gransnet threads are really good and worthy of publication I think .
Some don’t keep to the rules. I know games are for enjoyment and it’s all about the taking part but I wondered if anyone else would feel like me ? Could we have a thread of limericks which stick to the 88558 syllable rules ?
I hope it’s not out of order to suggest this. What do gamesters think? AIBU ?

I miss the hugs my daughter gives
I can't go to where she lives
Oz won’t allow it

I cannot go to where she lives
Oz won’t allow it
But soon, I vow it

When planes can fly I want first dibs

And showered with rice
With a church they couldn’t have coped

They’re forecast, so I wonder why,
My angelic face?
I’m in the right place?
But no dark clouds in the sky.
