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 went to the Dentist today
He took just one look and cried, "Hey"
Your teeth are just awful

I blubbered and then ran away.

That dentist is such a bad man

They’ll need to come out right away

So now I’ll have to wear dentures

I'm definitely not a fan.

But I left my dentures behind
Because I was out of my mind

But I left my dentures behind
Because I was out of my mind
A pair of pink gums

But when she wore her best maxi
She tripped on the hem
Was saved by a gem
Before she fell on her jaxie.

Now she was as clumsy could be

Now she was as clumsy could be
A mishap you could guarantee
She’d trip on fresh air
And without a care

A mishap you could guarantee
She’d trip on fresh air
And without a care
Dusts her skirt and downs a brandy

I wish I could sing like Kiri
