Thought I'd start where we left off

Today I saw the first mince pies
Too soon for all they symbolise

I don't care a jot, re-a-lly
As long as I get lots of tea
Cream filled cake must eat
My diet I’ll cheat

There is a circus here in town

As we need to go for our tea
A lovely cake fills me with glee
Lemon drizzle cake
Or cream bun I’ll take
Anything goes, that's big fat me !!

I don't care a jot, really

just a reminder that the general Limerick rhythm is...

Two lines with 8 syllables
Two lines with 5
Last line with 8

How about...

As we need to go for our tea
A lovely cake fills me with glee
Lemon drizzle cake
Or cream bun I’ll take

There was an old town clerk from Tring
To very high branches would cling
One Thursday in May
While out bailing hay
"Hallelujah" we all heard him sing

When I wake in the wee small hours
Wish I had magical powers
To get back to sleep
I count too many sheep
Not enough sleep, my mood sours.

Next weekend when the clocks go back ...
One hour of daylight we will lack
So take vitamin D
Not forgetting C
Long night for an insomniac

Seems sleeping at home suits me best
My cosy room , haven of rest
I'll sure get good sleep
And not make a peep
So the shed was not a good test
