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'm going to be fat as a house
Will I be too big to dance to Strauss?

I‘ll be too big to dance to Strauss?

I'd weigh the same as two whales

Some people will revel in the sun
But others might just cut and run

But others might just cut and run
For me, dappled shade
