I test my eyes by driving
Bismarck
In thickest fog at night;
Simons Mith
I haven't had a pile-up yet
Raak
Hop in! Do you think I might?
Bismarck
I thought I saw a pterosaur
Rosie
A-flapping up to me
Tune:
Diadem
Software
But it's just a seagull
KagomeShuko
As you can plainly see.
oblig.
Simons Mith
I've spotted spots before my eyes
Rosie
Like aerated turds they're floaters
Software
Am I looking at a leopard?
Simons Mith
Or a group of stoner voters?
Rosie
I wish I were a meteor
penelope
A-streaking down from space
Raak
I'd spread fire over all the Earth
Superman
And wipe t'smile off your face.
penelope
I wish a were a fountan pen
Rosie
My nickname being "Her Nibs"

I'd leave blobs of ink o'er the place

To show that I'd first dibs.
CdM
I wish I were a fountain, pen

Spraying like a dirty tom
KagomeShuko

I'm glad I'm not a rabbit

'Cos I'd hate my floppy ears
penelope
To dangle in the gravy
KagomeShuko
and be brown for years
Simons Mith
My soup has got a hare in
Software
Call the waiter, please!
Rosie
It squawks like Orla Guerin
KagomeShuko
And has a bunch of fleas!
Software
I wish I were a gremlin
Rosie
Just like Maxwell's Demon
Raak
I'd lurk within the Kremlin
KagomeShuko
And party with lost seamen.
CdM
I wish I were a demon
penelope
At Dominoes or Bridge
Software
Then I'd have a reason
Rosie
To expect privilege
KagomeShuko
If all my dreams and wishes
Software
Were to come true on this day
nfras
I think I'd wish for something
Raak
That would make me feel gay.
nfras
Oh, to be in England
KagomeShuko
Where the sun shines on the Thames
Simons Mith
The pedalos go stately by
I was by the Thames yesterday, with a good friend. It was a perfect afternoon. And you can now hire pedalos in Kingston.
Software
While thunderstorms portend
English summer - two hot days ....
KagomeShuko
If I were a poltergeist
penelope
I'd hang around the stairs

Manipulating all the paintings

To take you unawares.

Upon a misty night
KagomeShuko
You are prob'ly Irish

And very likely tight
Simons Mith
The Pouring of the Liquids
Raak
On this Momentous Day
I have NO idea what this is about.
Rosie
Unites the whole of Dollis Hill
CdM
On this Momentous Day
Not sure if this is finished yet.
KagomeShuko
CdM - On this Momentous Day
Not sure if this is finished yet.
On the first railway
.
Raak
O'er the silvery Tay.
More McGonagall than limerick, I think.
Software
I ply in my old dingy
Software
Bit of a cock-up there:
try again:
Software - I wish I could sail my dingy
Bismarck
Old schooner better than now;
penelope
My rigging looks like knitting
[Softers - did you mean
dinghy?
We're running with 'dingy' now anyway!]
Rosie
A dustbin makes up the prow
Going with the flow
KagomeShuko
I wish I could see unicorns
Software
Then Brexit may be real
penelope
My bum would not look big in this
Rosie
It is though - just feel.
Sorry, pen
penelope
When planning expeditions
*sigh* Not much of that going on right now
Raak
There's nothing left to chance
Software
My pack includes the kitchen sink
nfras
To wash my hands in France
Rosie
I am the
Surrey puma

A folklore cat or fable
[p, R, S, n - handwashing one is very pleasing]
KagomeShuko
I roam the streets of Londontown
Raak
And prey as I am able.

The practice makes me boggle
Raak
I never learned to tie a knot
Rosie
Or how to fix my woggle
oblig.
penelope
I was a
use
less Brownie
Software
For each badge I failed
nfras
Not one was sewn upon my sash
KagomeShuko
Instead, they all were nailed

Giertrud

penelope
[hi Giertrud - good to see you & assuming you're startig a lim here...(and googling 'jevity')]
I'm failing to eat it with levity!
penelope
oh poop. I made a line for a lim and it should have been a Glow. Maybe someone has the skillz to rescue it.
Simons Mith
Some Bailey's instead
(Nah, it shows promise; let's stick with it)
[Giertrud] we've been thinking of you]
Bismarck
And I'm out if this bed
If, in any way, the people who branded Jevity were thinking of "long" Jevity, then they need to be duffed up in the corner there
Software
And ending my stay with brevity
penelope
OK, after that sonsensual and experiential digression into limerickhood, now back to glow-worms
When boredom comes a-calling
Raak
I beat it from my door
Software
Just by going down the pub
KagomeShuko
And drinking pints and more
Rosie
I wish I were a monstrous weed
shaddap at the back.
Simons Mith
That constantly was spreading
penelope
Through broadcast of its monstrous seed
Software
And foliage a-shedding
KagomeShuko
I want to go to Londontown
CdM
And wear my Londonshoes
Simons Mith
I'd saunter round the Londonstreets
Raak
And read the Londonnews.
CdM
And then I'd sing the Londonblues
Hidden text
I like that last one enough to try another verse. Which will probably end up ruining it, of course.
penelope
Of life in Londontown
Pablo
The streets, the sights, the Londonlights
Superman
Which are the Londoncrown.
Simons Mith
But I'm stuck here in Merseyside
CdM
(Lord have mercy on my soul)

I'm grooving at the Cavern Club
Software
Before I get my dole
KagomeShuko
CdM
I'd say the second glowworm worked, too.
I think I'll go to Anfield
Rosie
Should be nice and quiet
Superman
I'll either hand out toffees
Hidden text
top of the league...
Software
But that's Everton, don't try it!
KagomeShuko
My mind has gone to mushy bits
Simons Mith
(Potatoes but not peas)
Now I'm getting hungry too
penelope
To find a rhyme for 'mushy' it's
Software
Difficult to please
KagomeShuko
When I am straddle-ing the fence
Raak
The barbed wire can be painful
Rosie
And, what's more, there's no defence
penelope
This stance is never gainful.
Software
What will be of Halloween?
CdM
In 2021?
Raak
Will we be extinct by then?
KagomeShuko
Or have lots of fun?
Rosie
I have a brand-new T-shirt
