I thought it might be fun to have a limerick contest. I know...ewwww, poetry. But limericks allow for a lot of humor and my favorite, innuendo.
The winner gets my undying respect and bragging rights. Sorry, I don't get paid for another three weeks. The winners will be posted Sunday evening around 8:00 pm EST. Gets to rhymin'!
The rules (I'm leaving out a few characteristics of a limerick):
Limericks have five lines.
Lines 1, 2 & 5 all end with the same rhyme (ex. flue, do, blue).
Lines 3 & 4 rhyme, but separately from lines 1,2 & 5.
Limericks should always be funny, so please have fun.
Starter if you need help: A dude from L.A. once said, WHOA!
There once was a man from Beirut;
ReplyDeleteWho like to cross the border and shoot
Jewish girls and boys
While the Katushas made noise
and Kofi gargled Ahmadinejad's root.
There once was a man from Nantucket . . .
ReplyDeleteOh, I can't write that one, can I?
No, Wyatt. Try again. There is no way to write a funny, somewhat clean limerick with the word Nantucket in it. I wonder if Nantucket ever has limerick contests.

Well I tried, and it appears you're right.vpiqrkj
